You're smart to try and paint it I think. The rebuilt I put on my '87 instantly started to rust and already looks worse about a year later than the rest of the calipers, which are original to the car. I think they probably hot tank them and instead of properly refinishing them they just coat them in oil which doesn't last (a lot of people on here have been less than impressed with the rebuilt calipers on offer). I guess you just have to do your best to clean off the oil with a solvent and hope the paint it able to stick.
