Another vote for Hammerite smooth. I did my daily driver's in black about 18 months back and it looks exactly the same now as when I first did it.

Many people I know use this paint on calipers and have had no problems. In fact Hammerite is generally fairly heat proof but they just don't quote the temperature range on the tins for some reason.
