Por-15 has their own caliper paint kit:

For do it a yourself hobbist (someone w/o a compressor that can run a HLPV gun) Por-15 works great brushed.

duplicolor caliper paint only after you clean w/wire brush. don't use the spray either. I did mine 3yrs ago and they still look freshly painted.

I used the G2 kit. It was a little too cold in the shop when I painted mine so I still see minor brush strokes. My advice is make sure the area is nice and warm and maybe even try spraying the paint on instead of brushing. Overall I am happy with the G2 product. The kit came with brush, brake cleaner, detailed instructions, paint and activator. This is where I bought it. http://www.wheelskin.com/g2_brake_caliper_paint.html
