    If the calipers are NOT painted I use Brake dusts cleaner and a fine steel brush.

    To clean calipers and wheels on a maintenance basis, go to a marine store and invest in a gallon of "Roll Off." It can be diluted 3/1 in a used 409 bottle. I spray it on my wheels, tires, and calipers. Wait 10 minutes and go over with a glass cleaning sponge (on a stick) with soapy water. Rinse with water and perfect.
