How/where did you buy Verde Ithaca paint? Did you take apart the caliper and then paint or did you tape up the edges?

Off the top of my head, I think the site was called expressautopaint.com (or something similar). I didn't take the caliper off the car. I just taped up all the edges, rotors, fenders, etc. and then began with the process.
