Default Is it safe to use brake cleaner on Brembos?

Going to be installing my Nismo S-tune package this weekend and figured I'd clean everything up really well while I was at it. Can I use brake cleaner on the brembos, or will it damage the powdercoat? It's easy enough to clean the calipers w/ soap and water, but there are plenty of other components down there that could use a good shot of brake cleaner; just want to know if it's safe if I get it on the calipers...

I used brake cleaner on mine with no problem. They weren't installed though and I did wipe them down afterwards.

Sweet! Have to do that, too.... picked up the brake cleaner on the way home and got everything set to start my S-tune install in the morning!
