Brake Calipers re-paint - help

Hey folks, I own a 2001 Boxster S and I would like to redo the brake calipers are they are really dull. I am not sure but they look like the original calipers are flat (smooth surface) and perhaps are powder coated? I picked up some Dupli-Colour caliper kit (Red), some wet sandpaper, brake cleaner, ordered new decals, and also a can of VHT Clear Gloss paint to use over the decals as a finish.

Can anyone tell me if I am on the right track and if it will turn out really well? I don't want to risk doing this project to find out this stuff won't work on the original brake calipers. Any help would be appreciated... thanks!
