Default G2 engine/caliper paint

Does anyone here have experience with G2 Engine or Caliper paint. I am looking into there product for painting my wheels, and am waiting to hear back from them on whether I can use it, or which would be better to use. All I know so far is that its a 2-part epoxy that is self leveling and can be brushed (or sprayed) on. I am looking for a quality DIY product because my rims have a little clear coat chipping, and I scuffed the lip at the car wash. Any help would be great.

I have researched Duplicolor, and have talked to them about there stuff. I also looked into VHT, but no one around here sells it. I like the idea of the epoxy paint, and the fact that you can brush it on.

Here's mine with DupliColor engine enamel (four coats) and no clear coat. It works great.
