Brake Calliper Repainting

Post by SR71 » Sat Mar 17, 2018 1:16 pm

Can anyone recommend a location near Maidenhead that will repaint my Brake callipers?

I've found numerous places a little further North.....

Cheers.

I’ve just had these done by BCS in Long Eaton
Near Nottingham.

I appreciate they’re not close to Maidenhead but it’s the second time I’ve used them and am so far impressed

Thanks guys.
The only downside to them can be a long turnaround time. However they have just (last week I believe) moved to a new bigger unit to improve productivity and capacity so that should be less of a problem now.

Had mine done at BCS, not the fastest and mine turned up with some grazes on. They sent me some touch up paint which worked well. But I wasn't best pleased that I had to fix their :dung:
