You walked right in to that one!
Sometimes me likes to set them up so everyone has a chance to hit a home run at least once in their life.

With the brushed finish, you can stay on top of it and really spend no more time than you would with paint, except that scratches and rock chips can fixed with little effort (unlike paint).

Some of us getting a little more relaxed with it and let it sorta seal itself with a little patina. I completely wash mine once a year with soap and water just for sh!ts and giggles (basically to see if I've collected any scratches). The rest of the time it gets a duster whipped over it, followed by a quick wipe with Windex and a cotton diaper just for the finger prints. I keep a purple scotchbrite handy for scratches or stains. I clean up the ghost stripes by masking them off and using a little wheel polish (about once a year).

Easiest damn thing I've ever lived with.
