Default How do you clean your calipers and rotors?

My calipers and rotors are slowly developing a copper color (like a rust color). What is everyone using to keep that clean metal gleam?

Good question. That's one of my pet peeves about the car. Every time I wash the car, the rotors are covered with a light coating of rust before I'm finished. This then runs down to the rotor edge where it's discoloring the silver paint. The surface rust on the rotor disappears the first time you hit the brakes, but not the silver rotor edges and hub. I guess I'll have to repaint or better yet powder-coat them.
