Rotors are a pain to tape off for paint. I used to use mask and razor blades. Electrical tape is perfect! Start in the middle and spiral twords out side. Not posting any pics but you get the idea. I can do two rotors in half the time of one

I use engine paint in a rattle can. Don't tape it up, just use a rag with lacquer thinner or acetone to remove the over spray, from the brake pad area. Even the next day acetone will take it off.

I found it easier to just cut out a circle peice of poster paper,tape it on in a couple of spots and spray. Just let the paint set up a little while before removing.:cool:
