Default Cleaning your Precision intercooler

My Precision 1026 is always getting these orange, rust looking spots on the end tanks (basically anywhere it doesnt have fins) this and of course other dirt from it being at the front of the car.
A couple of other people i know have had the same thing happen. How do you clean you intercooler and has anyone else had this happen?

Use WD-40 to clean it every week...I use this to clean my Trust IC since 3 years now and he looks mint.
