I used some high-temp primer along with high-temp black paint and I could'nt be happier with the results. It's been nearly a year (this September) and they still look like I *just* did the job.

So you did not remove the calipers? That's interesting.

How long does each coat take to dry?

Cool, thanks. I'll likely do this when I have to do the brakes anyway.

Did you at least remove the pads? Just curious.
