I used the two part epoxy from Eastwood brake paint three years ago on both my 76 and the Wifes SS and they still look good; I drove the 76 everyday until I bought the 97 and the wife drives the Impala everyday.

for what its worth,
I used Bright Aqua Metallic body paint (touchup) from Wal Mart on Susan's C4 (I wanted the calipers to match the body) and there has been no problems in the 2 years it's been on there.

Just did my sliver C6, used black and got the complete kit from Autozone for $15. Also did the rotors silver while I was at it.
