I don't see how this does not effect stopping performance? Enamel does gunk up even with sand paper at speeds no faster than your hand can go. Add the speed and friction and heat regular braking then you will eventually have issues. Unless there is a way to test this theory that it does not effect braking performance and prove me wrong I would not spray and then throw the pads on and then just trust that the paint comes completely off the pads after the 5 stops of 50 or w/e. Instead of using new pads I would first run the old pads and let all the paint rub off the surface area with a few stops then go back and add the new pads. Just seems pretty dangerous to me and although it does look damn good I would go that extra mile and do some extra work for safety. Looks should never out weigh safety.
Sorry if it sounds like im doggin on this mod and obviously from a prospected person. Been working on cars since I was 10 and father for his whole life and I would just not trust it. Great idea tho, but like I said just do a lil extra work and replace the pads after the first ride is all I say.
I understand what your saying and felt the same way before. I can say that it doesn't effect stopping performance in any way once it has been worn off.
