Ford Tremor Orange

Hey Guys. I had to find the color to paint my brake calipers. If you do a search for a Ford Color called "Electric Spice", you'll get the exact match. I ordered the paint color from Ford and it's dead-on.

You can just get it from your local Ford dealer since it's a Ford color. My buddy knows a guy from Dearborn so that's where he got but it's not hard to come by.

Not to steal CGMK3s thunder, but this is where I ordered a 12oz spray can from ($27 + shipping):

did you both remove the caliper to paint or just mask off around it and paint it while its still installed? i've been wanting to do this as well.

My buddy did it in his detail shop but I think we disassembled them and painted them and then reinstalled ...
 
I remove the calipers and pads, then mask and reinstall the empty calipers and prime, color, decal, clear. Then reinstall pads. Pic below of doing my wifes car for reference. I dont completely remove the calipers as I dont want to bleed brakes just for paint.

Sorry to be late to this party haha, how's the long term durability of the calipers? Don't they need high temp paint?
The high temp primer and clear seems to be enough. 3+ years, 45k+ miles and no issues. I don't let tire shops do my tire rotations though as those guys always scrape the calipers with the inside of the wheel and then I have to do touch ups, which I just use a qtip and the orange. I don't bother with the primer or clear on those touch ups.
