I just did my caliper this week...

Here is what I did....

Pulled bleed screw,
popped in some air from my air nozzle which popped out the piston and seal.
Doused in brake cleaner, dried, doused in den-alcohol, dried.

Threaded in all the bolts to protect the threads and masked off bolts (unless you want to coat them too) I coated the bleed screw.
I did not even mask off the bleader as you couldnt get powder in the hole if you wanted to..

Preheat caliper, coat..

Mine have a lot of contours that the powder did get into the crevices, so hang them accordingly so can do this... I sprayed a little powder on a small acid brush then tapped off the powder into the crevices.
Came out GREAT

The first one I did not do this and sprayed second coat with caliper hangin the other way to fill the crevices, now I will have to sand blast it and do over.
