Brake Caliper Paint ?

Would any of you kind soles have any info on painting brake calipers?

I was thinking that a splash of red on Sonic Blue Lightning may give it that attention to detail look.

What kind of paint would you recommend?

Any brand better than another? Why?

Thanks !

Why did you choose this one over other brands?

Are you going to do it yourself?

I use a product called G2. It's more of an epoxy than it is a paint. Mine has been on over a year and looks perfect when cleaned.

where can you get the G2 stuff? I painted mine about 4 monthes ago or so and they are dirty...they dont clean easy unless you take off the wheels which is a pain to do every month. I was thinking about an alternative since I have to do my pads soon.
