Caliper Paint, now excessive squealing
Has anyone else had the problem with painting your calipers and now having an excessive squealing noise coming from your brakes/rotors? I noticed it once i painted my calipers with the g2 paint, now every time my foot is NOT on the brake, it chirps at me consistently, and when i press the brake, it stops. is this a wd-40 fix?

I just took the wheel off the car, and kept the rotors on. i did notice my hub seemed a bit cracked and rusty, maybe that is the problem?? ill try to see whats going on, i just hope the g2 paint didnt screw anything up. everything works fine, just the squeaking. and its the front left brake.

the brake pads are fine. I checked them and they still have plenty of tread on them, and im sure the dealership would have tried to sell me some once I got my car back from them yesterday, if they were in bad condition.

I painted my brake parts too. If you dont tape up the discs you will get overspray on the rotors. The paint should burn off after a few miles of regular driving. Everytime you apply the brake you will burn the paint off until its all gone.
