^ This is automotive paint, the heat should not have any effect on it. My buddy who just posted above you painted his Brembo calipers on his Acura about 2 months ago with the same brand paint .. No signs of wearing or heat defect, and he does A LOT of driving. I let him be the test dummy and so far all is good so I'm not worried.

Paint will not completely cure in 20 mins, but enough to be considered driveable or to add stickers to the base coat.
I know you did. It's gonna looks sweet. The metallic falke really shows once you add the clear coat. Do a lot of light coats to give it a nice glossy layer.
Yup it really is. I'll be doing this again on my next ride.
Yup, extremely simple and cheap to do. Ive heard of some people charging hundreds of dollars to do this. This only cost me around $40 & a few hours of my time.
