Hammerite do a high temp caliper paint probably pick that up from halfrauds
Comes with all the bits to clean the calipers up before applying.

Halfords do their own caliper paint. Used it on mine and it's not too bad

I might even have a spare set of rear caliper stickers in the garage for 2-pots if you want to finish the job off properly
