Hey guys,
i have some M calipers that im cleaning. i want to get them clean enough to the point where i can pain them red with caliper paint (yeah i know...ricer style (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) ). they are still loaded (ie pistons and seals in bore, and bleader valve in place). i tried rubbing alcohol....not very effective. brake cleaner says it eats rubber so, that's out of the question. |

QUOTE(Andyrew @ Mar 15 2004, 08:42 PM) A wire brush, like you would use on your grill (cooking), but a little softer. a nice long one, and you can take it to bare metal, super clean like nothing. Just dont be afraid to scrub it hard. I did it on mine and they looked shiny before I painted them. Works alot better than chemicals. Andrew thanks. ill try that |
