They will be fine as long as you just ride the brake a very low speed first so they don't heat up too much.

I did mine well over 6 months ago and just drove the overspray off and have had no dramas. Think about the pressure between the pad and the rotor, The paint doesn't stand a chance.

I did mine when i bought them, I cant stand Rusty looking rotors.
I hate black or red too, so silver was my first and only choice. Its still going strong too.

Always paint your new discs or they will rust up within half a week and look like old parts.

Oh I painted my calipers silver too, I hate red calipers (stock ones that is)
