Brake caliper paint
The callipers on the front disc brakes on my Ford Zetec are showing signs of rust. Some weeks/months ago I remember that that you answered a letter from a reader who had a similar problem and you recommended a rust neutraliser and a special heat resistant pain but I cannot remember what they were. I would be very grateful if you could email me with this info.

Yes. Paint them with Sperex VHT (Very High Temperature) paint.
