What paint could I use on brake discs?

[Austin-182]

My brakes have gone rusty after being replaced just a few months back.

Is there a specific type of pain I could use on them?

Brake caliper paint would be fine. I got a cheap tin of silver off eBay. If you want to spend more get some Hammerite heat resistant paint from halfords or onlinr

I had a vision of actual paint on actual disc flol. Saw the op and realised nah that wont be the case, lol.

Yeah that was one badly worded title lol, I expected the same.

Ive seen an apprentice put copper grease on a brake pad to stop squeal.
On the friction material side though
Halfords sell the very high temp paint you'll need,
just please don't do them red etc

Hammerite Direct to Rust worked nicely for me.

Wire brush / scotch pad as much rust off as you can, mask round the disc so you don't get paint on it & paint it up, I'd use black Hammerite smooth.

Hi Austin, I have had normal brush on Hammerite smooth silver on all my cars for years and still lovely no need to bother with high temp.

i used silver High temp paint from halfords on the focus, mask as much of the disc as you can/be bothered to,

when dry go up the road and touch the brakes and all the excess will come off leaving a nice edge lol

Anthracite / dark grey will be what i do them in. I dont want them to stand out at all, i just want rid of the orange rust.

Thanks mate. They look worse than my old brakes which had been on for 5-6 years!
