Caliper Rusted Due to Meguire's Product

I started using Meguire's Tire Shine spray that I can't fine on their website anymore, and I noticed today that my calipers started to rust. It's at an early stage where it feels like it could be wiped off, but that's not really the case. What can I use to get them back to their original state? They were in perfect silver color 2 weeks ago. And I don't want to paint them either. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

use a HD brake cleaner. WD40 wouldalso take care of the rust but youd have to be EXTREMELY careful not to get it on the rotor or pads. Between brake dust, corrosion, and heat cycles on top of everything, your calipers wont stay silver forever I hate to break it to you

Thanks bro. Will try that. I tried to brush it and some of it came off as break dust, so I am happy it could be fixed
