True enough - it's something to do after your show though. I doubt your calipers will get very dirty by the time the show ends, and you'll have plenty of time to do the clearcoat afterward. When you finish detailing, throw up a few pics

I would wait a few weeks before you clear them. With any type of paint work it is best to wait a few weeks before cleaning them so the paint can set! Then clear them at that point since you did not do it all at the same time.
