Once the wheels are off the hubs look horrible as you can see in this pic.

I have done something similar, however I used a Mr. Clean magic eraser being careful to avoid the rotor surface. I can't say if it works better than your approach, but it is a bonus that you don't need chemicals.
I am going to try the brake cleaner based on your post.
Nice post.
