If you clean your calipers before you put it on it shouldn't be a problem. I put on the stuff from the tirerack, dont remember the brand, on my GrandPrix GTP about 4 years ago and it still looks great. I did it in white. It was brush on and it smoothed out nicely and made a hard, shiny coating. The brake dust and grime would just wipe off with a wet rag.

Now, that kit cost me like $30-40. I don't know if these cheaper kits will have the same results.
