I had my S3 fronts shot blasted and powder coated and I have a set of vRS/GTi rear calipers with DaveB receiving the same treatment.  I did however paint the calipers on swmbo's Golf with black smoothrite, and they are fine.  My advice would be to get a tin of red hammerite, wire brush the caliper, mask up around the disc, pads etc, then paint it on.  :happy2:
