Might have idea how to protect Brembo calipers

Was just thinking today how to protect the Brembo calipers so the paint doesn't fade off or come off. Mine are still new, but hearing a lot of people that there calipers are fading or paint coming off and I really don't want this to happen to mine.

So I was thinking today what if we spray CLEAR COAT on them. I know there painted by factory etc and probably have clear coat, but what if we go to parts store and pick up a can of clear coat and spray them nicely.
Do you think this will work ?

I believe that they fade due to the heat, so I don't believe that your idea will work.

Right, the clear coat will burn right off if you ever get these past warm and on the track it would be a mess.
