Default Brake Caliper Paint

Anyone use the 2 part, caliper paint system? Wondering if it was worth the 36 bucks they charge for it? Any other thoughts on painting calipers so that they last???

The few times I have painted calipers I used the caliper paint from Eastwood Company. It brushed on and is self leveling. Worked good and seemed to last.
