Surprised it was still Orange , that stuff usually flakes away after a while due to the stresses and strains of being a Brake pad . When they are new (as in the Picture that Dangerous Dave provided) they are a Coppery colour . Took me a while to realise what you were on about , I was looking at your calipers and thinking "Damn , wished mine were that clean" , then it dawned on me what you were on about , easy mistake to make dude
