Get the proper caliper paint as it will cope with the heat better and you won't be continually re-touching the brakes up to freshen the colour. Hammerite use up to 80 degrees C. If you get the proper stuff you can then touch up your engine if you get bored.

I did mine with Hammerite Smooth

hammerite smooth. clean well with wire brush before hand. caliper paint is a waste of money. if the hammerite peels of, you didnt clean/prepare the surface properly. use a 1/2" brush to paint.

Hammerite smooth. Works fine.
