i take it you mean the rear drum ?? not brum. then yeah its safe.

have you already bought the paint ??if not a tin of hammerrite will do it as well and prob dry alot quicker as well as being lot cheaper. just remember to use a few coats.

if you do it first thing one morning say around 8 - 9 ish for the 1st coat ( remember and wire brush an use brake cleaner to remove any rust etc so the paint can stick better ) another around 12 - 1 ish and then another around 3 then the paint should be dry and cured by morning.

dont know about the proper brake paint as its normally heavily overpriced
