I'm in the process of rebuilding all four brake calipers and am contemplating having them cadmium plated. Does anyone know if the plating process will require that the bores be re-polished. I'm thinking that since the o-ring sits in the caliper and if the piston is smooth with no pitting; that as long as the bore is clean and free of any gouges that the plating process will have little effect.
Any thoughts or experience is appreciated. Thanks |
