Brembo Caliper Refurbishment?

Does anyone know of a company or person that refurbishes calipers? I track my car regularly and my calipers look HORRIBLE. I cleaned, sanded and repainted the calipers this summer with high temp paint, and it was they are back to crap after a few events. If someone can recommend a person to redo them again, I would gladly scrap together some money to have it done, currently they are already off of the car. Thanks.

The brembo's I believe are originally powdercoated when they come with the car. Repowdercoating them won't do a darned thing as they'll turn to brownbos and blackbos again.

Are the stockers made of aluminum? How about getting them anodized (cooking pans are anodized so they definitely handle the heat)? I believe Wildwood calipers are also anodized (black ones at least) and those things don't seem to fade. I believe anodizing calipers on Motorcycles are also quite popular.
