Question Has anyone used this to paint their calipers and drums?

I want to paint my rusty looking calipers and drums black, and I'm just wondering if anyone else has used this kit for theirs. Is there enough to do both the calipers and drums? Or should I get two just to be safe? Thanks!

Here's the link, G2 brake caliper paint kit: G2 Brake Caliper Paint Kit: Hubcaps Plus After Market Parts and Accessories For Cars, Trucks and SUVs

Eastwood makes good stuff.

I will say one thing about the Duplicolor......it has held up for 4 years now and will stay looking new.

Where can you get it with a glossy finish? The only ones I can find are flat black.

Look this up on Ebay... "Brake caliper cover". I bought a set from "needed_thing" in Thailand. It takes a couple weeks but who cares how long it takes cuz when you actually install the covers its a big difference in looks. Pay around $30 for a pair of fronts. Front and back sets are available.
