The rotors certainly show their rust post a good wash - and I thought it was caused by the brakes "rusting" onto the rotors. Just wanted to make sure that I was not doing harm to my ride - or if I should not be parking her immediately after a wash (for whatever reason.....)

Try driving it around the block an hr after the car has dried, this will likely knock off the rust spots as a result of rinsing and the only rust you'll get on the rotors while parked is if anyone wets them again.
