For those of you who have their calipers painted how do you keep them clean and how often do you clean them? Or you don't really care?
Basically i thought about this while i was changing my wheels today. I noticed mine were full of dirt/dust that accumulated over the years. Although i wash my car/wheels i do not really focus on the calipers therefore i may miss some areas. Plus with 18" wheels it's not easy to access them.
Now that i have 19" I'm interested in having mine painted and since I was quoted around 900$ a few months back (by ACG) I realize I'll have to be more careful. Hence my question.

The finish on your OEM calipers is pretty durable.
Take some simple green and a plastis brush ( about as hard as a tooth brush bristle ) and spray down the caliper ( make sure it's cold ) and scrub it with the brush and rinse off repeat this once or twice and your good to go

soap and water works fine with me. I have some degreaser from my supplies for my maintenance company that I dilute in water and it works pretty damn well.

Invest in a pressure washer. Just bought one and my brakes are always nice and looking fresh. Car is p31 so brakes are red. Best decision I've ever made buying that thing

I bought an 9 dollar soft wheel brush off amazon to get between the spokes. It gets the caliber clean too. Works great.
