We have them and we do advise to put a clear coat over them...why? Because the caliper surface isnt exactly smooth, it has pits in it, plus the brakes get very hot during braking, so a high temp clear coat over them will help keep them from pealing from the heat.

On my last car I sandblasted the calipers and used Plasti-Coat caliper paint...3 coats...that stuff was tough as nails. As WS6store said, they are sort of rough, but I didn't have any peeling problems w/o clearcoat. I had the brushed stainless letters with red calipers.
This time I'm doing black calipers with red or silver lettering...probably red to match the car.
