[QUOTE="mooch91, post: 9659203, member: 90547"] VHT satin black caliper paint. I baked (as suggested on the can) with a combination of the sun and a high-temp halogen work lamp before reassembly. You have to be incredibly careful - although it says "chemical resistant", it seems as if brake fluid can still do a number on it, even if cured. I'm hoping temps of braking will help it to cure further. Nonetheless, when I reconnected and bled the brakes, I was extremely careful not to get any on the caliper. So far, so good. And I'm happy I had to take them off anyway so it was a no-brainer to spray the "off the car". I think I got better coverage and a cleaner look. New rotors are Centric brand; they already had a satin black finish on the hat and edges, so it matches well. [/QUOTE]
