Help DOT3 on paint!!!

I just had to bleed my clutch and when I shut my hood some brake fluid got on it from my hands. I quickly washed it twice with power wash gel.. I shouldn't have any problems should I? Also when I bled my clutch I pumped it like ten times, then had my brother hold it to the floor while I quickly loosened the screw and tightened it back up. This is the correct way, right?

That's the correct way. The best way to wash brake fluid off paint is with lots of water. Brake fluid dissolves in water, so washing it off with hopefull save your paint.
