One very important consideration in painting calipers is what kind of brake
fluid you have been using.  

If you have converted to DOT 5, you have to go to extreme measures to get
the surface prepared so that the paint does not fisheye.  Silicon fluid is
very difficult to get off and permeates everything in and around the brake
system.
