I'm in the same boat as you tohn. I'm trying to paint my calipers on my black 212, but wanted to trying something different. I been toying with this idea here -

here's mine that i just finished painting today. Anyone know how to paint it so it looks like there's no brush mark, or make it looks smooth?
