What paint would members recommend for a brake caliper?

(for those who are wondering about this radical departure from my usual rust and hammerite stand point, I am tidying a caliper for sale, not to put on my bike ;D)

I used VHT caliper paint, stripped off the old stuff got rid of the oxidation and sprayed looks good and it has lasted.
