Default Cleaning BLACK exhust

I am thinking of buying a set of BLACK Big Radius or something , but I have heard that they mark easy and are hard to clean??
You guys with the black exhusts , do you find that you have to be more careful with them or is this untrue ?
Thanks

I've had mine for a while now. They still look great.

Don't touch anything on them while thier hot.

I clean themwith soap and water and use a micro fiber cloth.
