Default Washing brake calipers

I've tried lots of things to wash the brake calipers but the other day I tried one of those Swiffer Dusters. I dipped it in the soapy water bucket and it worked great. It's even thin enough the get in the tight spot between the the caliper and the wheel spoke. Held up great for all 4 wheels. Could have lasted even longer.

If anyone has a better technique, share it but the wet, soapy Swiffer is the best I've tried.

This works great, and won't mar wheels! I don't use the handle...
