Simply sprayed the caliper with brake fluid cleaner and agitated with a stiff brush, it evaporates quickly and leaves the area clean and dry!
Two coats of paint! Takes time to dry between coats, then apply graphics!

Just read this article -

We used a company near Birmingham to do the Aston - their web site is:

http://www.shorade.co.uk/

I know they are brilliant they take them off and take apart the caliper - then power coat in Guardsman Red
job took 2 days as they bake the paint in oven for 8 hours and even applied graphics.

The chap to call is Steve Shore - MD

again hope this helps anyone Thumbs Up
