Ive painted my brakes with red calliper paint and it says drys in between 12 and 48 hours.well they are touch dry but the paint feels a little rubbery in places and its been over 48 hours so do you recon its ok to drive.Or will this reck the paint,or perhaps just harden it.?

You should be ok, unless you applied it overly thick it should be fine.

Dont think i applied it any thicker than i have any other time..Its at the stage where if you press your finger against it you dont get a print ,but it still has a slight rubbery feel to it
