It is just surface rust on the rotors and will be gone as soon as the brakes are used.

Yup, that's only 48 hours of surface rust too.

It only took me two to three hours.

Easiest way is to tape and use a small brush an spray the caliper paint into the lid of the can then brush it on. Less tape and less risk of paint where you don't want it.
