MG MGA - Brake fluid spill

The master cyl leaked on the firewall paint and I cleaned it up with eng cleaner. Then painted it and the paint bubbled up. What can I use to fix this or do I have to sand it down a little. Thanks Bill

You will have to use something much stronger than engine cleaner....Either lacquer thinner, or acetone....It will remove the paint completely...
Otherwise no paint will adhere...there will always be some fluid residue....
Then sand, prime, and repaint the area. No easy fix.

Pressure wash with water, and then use solvents to remove any residues, then pressure wash again
