hammerite does the job fine. colour is totally up to you, though a bit of simple black or silver never goes amiss and is a general crowd pleaser for looking clean and standard.

as said by a few above i think the black (or silver in Phil's case) look the best i used to have some of that foliatec stuff which was meant to be gold colour, after a couple of years it looked shite so black all the way for me reminds me, need to touch mine up before Ford Fair |

ive always painted mine black...even when i did my first rear disc conversion..because it looked black and standard...no one batted an eyelid  altho its up to you but drums in lairy colours attract a bit too much of the wrong respect  ive been toying with the idea of yellow brakes..but the hi specs are black and i think painting those would look a bit wank if im honest! so ill be staying with dull and boring black Jam |
