I've read into this, because have been considering doing it. The absolute best way to do it is to get the calipers powder coated, but that cost a lot. Most people don't remove the calipers and have no problems with that method. It will be better to remove them, but it isn't necessary, and won't make a huge difference. It will just be easier to paint if you remove them.
The clear coat is a good addition and I would do it, but it's effects are debatable. I have heard of some people using a few coats with great results, and others doing this and having it crack off.
It depends a lot on your driving, if you break really hard often the paint/clear coat is going to have to withstand a lot more than if your gentle. So the cracking/peeling/flaking depends on you more than the paint.
