Here's a couple picks of my calipers. I used a die grinder and cone shaped grinding tool to smooth out the casting, and painted it with G2 caliper paint. As stated above, throw out the brushes that come in the kit, and pick up some artist brushes from a hobby shop or craft store, this will give you a smoother finish, and they are easier to get into the nooks and crannies.

Is that a sticker on your calipers for the S2000 logo? If so, where did you find them?
