need some advice on a brake job

I was due for a change, so picked up some centric blanks and stoptech street pads.

- in order to eliminate the infamous rust ring around the rotors, i decided to attempt to paint them with VHT HT Calipher paint.

Since im doing this for the first, i wasnt to sure if i should finish the job with clear coating it. What do you guys say, should i just put on the paint, let it cure and be done with it or should i apply the clear coat and if so when should i put it on (before or after curing the paint)..forgive me..im a noob wen it comes to painting

- I'm moving from Hawk hps to the stoptech street pads, however the pads i got didnt come with any anti-seize or grease compound. Im pretty sure i need to apply some anti-seize compound, so can any 1 recommend what to get from the regular auto stores (canadian tire, partsource or napa).

Also should i be getting anything else along with the anti-seize compound, like some copper based grease (i dont know just read it off 1 of the google searches)

thanks

All clear coat does on anything that sees high temperature is cause problems. Don't worry about it.
