My first red set looked almost as good as new 3.5 years after I first did them. Keep in mind that the powder coting doesn't melt until 450 degrees F, so unless your braking hard enough to boil your brake fluid, the coating will outlast ANY paint. The powder fills in the casting mark voids and brake dust can be removed with compressed air or a stream of water. No more harsh cleaners. Brembo factory calipers for the STi are powder coated from the factory!
