From a purely practical point of view, my previous Cars calipers seized after 5 years with corrosion on the piston and they looked rusty as hell. I fitted new calipers but painted them gloss black (Because that’s what I had at the time) and they lasted 9 years and 100,000 miles and were still good when I moved the car on. I can only assume it’s because I kept them clean and/or the dirt/salt washed off the gloss a little easier. 2012 5.0 SC AB

Yeah my factory Jaguar brembos are painted grey and brake dust never sticks to them! Amazing paint they used.
