Hello,
I tried doing a search to find out what temp the rear brake drums get, but I found a wide range on the internet. Does anyone know what the upper temperature limit would be for the rear brake drums on a TR6? I would think they would not get that hot since most of the braking action is in the front. The reason I want to know this? I am trying to figure out which powdercoat paint to use. The standard powdercoat paint I use is good up to 250 degrees. Eastwood offers a high temp powder paint that is good up to 1000 degrees, but it costs three times as much, and only comes in satin black (the rest of the black on my car is painted semigloss black). Any help would greatly be appreciated.
