Default Caliper paint clear coat - are any resistant to brake fluid?

My son is painting his calipers by removing them, but I'm afraid the dripping brake fluid will ruin the job. Is there a clear coat that is resistant to brake fluid, and possibly brake cleaner?

Regular brake caliber paint seems to hold up pretty well

I know that SPI polyurethane clear, the MS, HS and Universal one they sell, will stand up to it just fine.. They stand up against aircraft hydraulic fluid, they pass the skydrol test.. Much tougher than brake fluid
