Default cluth squeak after painting the calipers

I took 4 wheels out and painted my calipers to red, I let it sit in my garage for 2 days and today I finally put back my wheels. When i test drive it I notice my clutch is squeaking when i press on it. I searched on here and people say it is a common issue. I dont see any pic but only text to diy fix it. Any pics show how to fix it ??

yeah... search is your friend....

but just so you know what you're searching for, the squeaking... are you sure it's actually your clutch? you dont have ceramic paint overspray or through brush strokes have gotten any of that paint on the disk braking surface? If it only started immediately after that, I'd check that first....then go down the line, unless something is pointing right to the clutch.

Painting the calipers will have nothing to do with your clutch. Those are two different systems. As far as fixing the noise, open your hood, have a friend press the pedal and listen for the noise. Grease the only part moving when you hear the sound.
