Yea you can get caliper paint at any auto store. Buy the kit not the spray can.
The drums were the easiest since there aren't any groves like the front brakes. It doesn't affect braking at all since it's not touching the disc or the pads.
It's merely cosmetic

I'm guessing you didn't take the drum cover off?
I actually used the spray on mine, but I took the caliper off when I did it. Came out great and have been holding up great.

Nope I didn't take anything off or cover anything up.
The kit is a brush on which is so much easier.

Yea I wanted the brush on kit but the stores only had red and yellow... I was set on black. It was the same weekend I put my rotors on anyway so it wasn't a big deal to me...

They actually sell a kit in black. I was debating on black or red.

So you think I should leave the brakes red or switch to black?

But in the spring I'm getting that widebody kit, painting the car flat *** black, and getting gold rims.

Well they're going to be Rota's so it's going to be more glossy.
For winter I'm putting my gold stockers on and the Rota's for summer.
