nah i should of clear coated it but I didn't even think of it. I used the duplicolor red caliper paint kit.

I'll eventually redo them so i'll clear coat them next time. There good for this summer though.

Yeah definitely clearcoat it. I used the same paint last summer and it chipped on me. Had to touch it up alot. I would just spray it closely with the clear even I'd ur wheels are on. If you spray closely with short spurts it won't go everywhere

No. It'll just scrape off when the brakes are applied. Nothin else can be damaged by the small amount of overspray
