No need to bleed! You all are like some 1800s blood letters up there in Indiana.
Tape the area around the calipers to the best of your ability. Spray down with some coats. Once cured drive for a little bit and your pads will take the paint right off with some moderate braking. The paint will also come right off the rotors with some braking.
No pun intended but that method is not my method of choice. I'd like to remove the whole damn thing. Brush it with brake cleaner until I can see my nose hairs from the reflection. Then, I paint the front, back, crevaces. Then, when I put the calipers back, I'd bleed the brakes since it's a good opportunity to do it. That's just my own preference. No short cuts.
Jeff...we need to have a brake bleeding session. Our cars have great brakes but require frequent bleeding if you go to the track.
