I dont know, but after some hard braking I can see the hammerite melting off all over your disks/brakes.

Painted the side of the hub (not the face) when i did my drums and calipers a couple of months back, and there fine, no bubbles or anything. At the end of the day, even if it does bubble, you can always wire brush the paint off and do them again .
