I just painted my calipers last night gloss black. I even painted the part of the rotor that makes contact to the rims. They look sweet but, i over sprayed onto the surface of the rotor. And for some reason the rear left rotor got it really bad. I tried driving around the block to burn off the paint but it just got worse. The other three look normal except for that one still.
Will it eventrually burn off after driving for a while?
I need advise please help!

Look like crap?, my rotors and calipers are painted perfectly. I never said i sprayed the rotor direct with paint, there was bit of over-spray on the rear rotor. This is after 4-5 coats of paint per caliper.
Anyway 90% of ther paint is totally gone after one day of normal driving. Im sure by this weekend they will be back to normal.
Thanks for the advice guys!
