Make sure the weather isn't too hot. I used G2 kit. Which is Is a can with a brush that you paint on instead of spraying, which I think is much easier and more convenient on time less prep. Also clean the caliper well , depending on the condition you may have to sand it. Take your time. Its easy and should only take 2 to 3 hours. 60 bucks vs 300 for caliper clips.

Either was I. basically just researching and watching YouTube videos and it popped up. It's a great kit. Many colors to choose from. I highly recommend it.

Wow. Its very nice. Did you put any type of clear coating over it? If you did- was the clear coating also applied with a brush?

From my reading the product description and reviews the other day the clear or gloss is in the paint already. No need for a separate application.

Nope no clear coat.. just the paint in the can
