Thx mate.
Seems like once the coriginal clear coat is off, by mostly peeking, simply applying new gloss should do the trick. |

If you can very carefully remove the clear and they arent dirty or greasy you can apply clear again and get a very good result.

I painted mine orange (they were red). I used VHT caliper paint.
