VHT dark blue caliper paint.
VERY forgiving paint! Had a run and it dissapeared as it dried.
Also put a VHT caliper gloss coat on them. Figured it would make the blue more durable.
Glossed them about 30 minutes after the paint.
Let them dry for half a day and they could easily be handled.
I spent the better part of an entire day removing, cleaning (THAT IS THE PAIN!!!!!!!!!!!), painting and reinstalling.
I completely removed everything.

The parts of the rotors were also painted with alluminum VHT caliper and rotor paint.
