I like the G2 system because it's just with a paintbrush. Don't need to take the whole assembly off the car. Just mask off the rotor and you can do the caliper and the caliper brackets separately if different colours (like me) or together if the same colour. I did about 3 or 4 coats but mind you I had two different colours. If you use one colour, I don't know if one can is enough for 4 coats on all the parts. Also, you SS guys have brembos so even more paint is needed.

How warm would you say the weather needs to be before painting your calipers?
