Rear Drum Brakes Painted

Now the majority of the major modifications are done, for now, I'm moving onto freshening up the motor getting it show standard as it were.

First job, paint the drums.

Used some engine lacquer - matt black, gave more of a satin effect though which is ideal. Looks smart and a nice improvement.


Cleaned up with a wire brush and some halfrauds brake cleaner.

    If the braking surface diameter exceeds specifications, the drum must be replaced. If the braking surface diameter is within specifications, drums should be cleaned and inspected for cracks, scores, deep grooves, taper, out of round and heat spotting. If drums are cracked or heat spotted, they must be replaced.
