Stainless Steel Brake Lines

Elbow Grease!
Seriously, mostly just using a wheel brush, and AutoGlym Car Shampoo. I did get them coated, but I can't remember what the coating was...
I did use hot water though for the wheels - as how as I can stand. I do the wheels first, one at a time before washing the car itself. So the water was just tepid before washing the car.
Wasn't too bad getting them clean after the track day either. Suprisingly the rears were harder to clean than the fronts....
I tried AutoGlym clean wheels - but that attacked the white paint!
So, I've still got a near full bottle... guess I might try it on the S2000's wheels. From Biker1's reports I'm going to have a lot of brake dust to clean off soon
If you really want to know what the coating was I'll try find out what it was next weekend.

I had the Goodridge lines fitted about four months ago combined with an upgrade to 5.1 fluid. I had the work completed by my local Honda dealer and they went on with out any problems.
As for feel, the pedal is a touch harder but I found no great improvement in performance (with the standard pads). I've since bought some Hawk Blue's from King and found them a dramatic improvement but as discussed they create a lot more dust. My first track day (the real reason for uprade) since fitting the pads is this Friday and i'm hoping that fade is greatly reduced.
