Cleaning up a front brake assembly
Ok... DO I really need to say it again????
Ok, Ok...
First and foremost.... Ignore every thing I say.
I am not a professional mechanic, I have no training, and generally I ride stuff that is completely unsafe and I do things that should never be done.

So, here is what I am starting with..

Ok, now I have the assembly clean enough to take it apart and not have to worry about contaminating the insides.
True, I will have to clean the insides anyway but why make the job any worse?
