1.) Its easy
2.) You don't have to take it off you can use newspaper and tape it to the rotors so you don't get it over them. If you take them off you have to bleed the brake lines....

yea i used dublicolor and first i used a wire brush to clean off the rust and w/e else is on it. then spray the degreaser. my kit came with a paint brush so i paintbrushed all the calipers w/o taking them off. then did a second coat and let it dry. looks amazingly better. oh and while you are there throw on a set of drilled/slotted rotors and it really spices things up.
