I'd recommend brake caliper paint, the stuff you have to mix and apply within a reasonable time period then it goes off hard - it's designed to be on brake systems.

Hammerite smooth, two coats with an hour between coats in cold weather, half an hour if in a heated garage.
Brush painted is good, it dries with no marks, no need to mask off.
