I figure 4 coats of gold with 2 coats of copper should do it. And then by seeing how it's coming along, I'll decide which color to apply as the final coat.
I know this isn't recommended for calipers as its a high heat area, but I'm willing to take my chances and see how it all holds. It peels if all else fails, right?

I would HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY recomend to NOT do your brake calipers in any spray vinyl wether it be autodip or plastidip. You will need paint that can take high heat because brakes do generate a lot of heat.
