Clear Coat on Brembo Calipers

I put a clear coat sealer on my Brembo Calipers today. I am very happy with the results. I used Dupli-Color Engine Enamel Clear. This is an easy and inexpensive mod. I put the car on jack stands, masked off all areas that don't want over spray, used brake cleaner and then sprayed 6-7 light coats. It takes more time to prep as in any paint project.
