Painting Calipers??

Anyone know an easy method of doing this? Is the brush on or spray on kits the best? Any input?

i used a two part teflon epoxy (brush-on) on mine. you can't see any streaks at all, and dust never sticks to it. i like it.

Might want to look into VHT high temp caliper paint. They have it in alot of colors, try Summit, thats where I got mine. 900* protection.
