do rusted calipers affect braking? or is it just surface rust and cosmetic? so if i just sand the rust off and paint over it, would the rust come back just like how rust comes back on body panels?

also... uh... if you paint rotors to prevent rust... whch parts of the rotor should you paint? the whole thing? only the front? back and front? just the middle part that sticks up?

Centric is the only company to use paint on the inside of the front vented rotors. I plan on getting brembo blank rotors in the next few days. Does the rust that builds up in between the disks on the rotor weaken the rotor overtime???
