Brembo Calipers Peeling

I didn't quite see my question being addressed in other posts so decided to ask.
If you had your TL's Brembo (OEM) black calipers peeling (clearcoat), did anyone fix the condition themselves? That is, were you able to just re-clearcoat it (assuming you caught it early enough) or did you fully repaint, re-apply the Acura letters, and then clearcoat?
If the former, did you lightly sand, what clearcoat brand do you recommend, and how do you feel it turned out? I'd prefer some positive actual data points on paint and/or clearcoat i.e. you actually used it or have direct knowledge of how the product performed versus just throwing brand names out. If the latter (repainting etc), any advice beyond the other post out there about Brembo peeling? Right now this is just a cosmetic issue so spending $325+ per caliper ain't going to happen.
Thanks.

lol not this topic again.
good thing you didnt ask what color to paint it...

Dude, just do a repaint.
there are several DIY's posted ALL over this forum.
and its like any other thing you paint....strip paint, clean surface, apply paint, apply decal, apply clear.

and please dont ask what color to paint your bbk's. because last time some one asked; it turned ugly.
