I had the same issue and it really bugged me. It reminded me of my first car, a red Toyota Celica that the paint faded and was almost redish pink.

Anyway its not perfect, but I took brake cleaner and cleaned my calipers really well making sure to chip off most of the peeling clear. Once they were clean and dry, I taped off the rotor and then resprayed the caliper with clear coat enamel in a can that I bought at like lowes for another project. It set up good and has not come off yet, and the calipers are shiny again. Will it last forever? Probably not, but I'm happy with it for now
