I used the VHT spray paint from Auto Zone. Halfway masked the rotors. After they were installed, did a few heavy braking slow downs, smoked like crazy, but it only burnt paint off the rotors and left the hubs OK. I used the brush on kit from Foliatec on the calibers. Only problem with that was you had to do all 4 at one time. The paint starts to thicken up after a couple hours.
