[Shotimes] Brake questions!

[Steve Tatro]

I wasn't planning on repainting them.  I just don't want to see the
yellow any more!

You think I should just use black?

I acutally don't mind the yellow calipers.  When they're freshly painted
and clean they look good, but the brake looks like hell.  Also, the
wheel cleaner I typically use eats away at the cheap paint.

Thanks,

Paint thinner?

Are you going to paint them anything once the yellow is pretty much
gone?

I replaced my rotors and pads over the weekend.  I realized one thing,
I'm tired of my calipers being yellow!  Is there a heavy-duty paint
remover that will get the yellow paint off my calipers?
 
Also, I'm probably going to follow the brake seasoning techniques
illustrated by Baer
http://www.baer.com/Support/TechTips.aspx?TechTipID=4.  Any thoughts?
 
Oh, and my front two bleeder screws are "stuck".  Both are slightly
rounded off.  Any ideas how to get them out?  Probably don't want to use
heat on them, right?  I plan on installing speed bleeders on all four
corners.
 
Thanks.
