Finish looks good however Can't say I actually get away with it, the wife's at work and the kids are at school. For some reason the kids reckoned that their posh fish cakes tasted 'funny' the other night They could have had salad like me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtbiscuit Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 very clean finish, what does the logo say on the caliper, i cant read it for some reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob63 Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 very clean finish, what does the logo say on the caliper, i cant read it for some reason? VHT Caliper paint, 3 stage ceramic, doesn't chip, fade, yellow or crack and is good up to 482degC. Works best when 'cooked' for a short period. To be fair the picture doesn't do it justice (could be the phone), it's a lovely bright red and it cuts back, with a lot of effort, pretty good as well The logo says - AKEBONO, they manufacture the calipers and I reckon it looks better than NISSAN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasso Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Its actually very bad to cook paint in your home domestic oven. The chemicals in the paint will be harmful and reside inside your oven for when you cook a roast dinner. Nice finish though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasso Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Split loads of motorcycle headlights to fit angle eyes in the oven, the bike looks a vee twin but the can is on the left could be a Honda but it could be a duke Plastics are fine as long as they don't burn, but paint is a very bad move in the oven. Read up on it as I was going to do it and decided firmly against it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopedmark Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Paint can be toxic , could possible run them through my mates powder coating oven, mmmmmmm that would work I think Wasso ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob63 Posted July 13, 2013 Author Share Posted July 13, 2013 Not wanting to get into a long drawn out debate on this one. I did research this, also looked at how healthy your average supermarket chicken is only to find this... ...although previous studies have shown carcinogenic arsenic fed to chickens—something approved for use in nonorganic chicken farming—does wind up in the meat. Interesting, and that's just the start of it Also got me thinking if was safe to use my BBQ LOL As for the bike, close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
