I got brake fluid on my drivers fender and just a little bit of buffing took out the damage. If you cleaned it off real quick it should have only damaged the surface of the paint.

Try Meguires step 2 polish, you can get it at Autozone, Pepe Boys etc. It should take out the stain and not do any damage to the paint.
