No sanding needed. Just wipe down good with rubbing alcohol or brake kleen. For the rotors use a wire wheel to remove the rust and mask off the parts you don't want painted. It will look very good when everything is detailed out.

I did mine with the duplicolor kit (red) and it looked better than normal spray in a bottle [at first]. I second the fact that it WILL chip. I noticed it the other day so I guess I need to go back and touch things up. It does look really really good though and I would recommend it to anyone. I think mine chipped because of when I was putting my springs on im sure I did something to it.

Mine used to chip just from the wheel brush hitting the paint. They will look good for a few months then start looking dingy.
I'd try some of those aluminum clip on covers for the calipers.
