Re: How do I eliminate rust on brake hubs and calipers?
If you paint them, they will just rust through again unless treated first, Jay.
Google Ospho.

•IMO:
-Spritzing these brake system components
with this anti-rust product once or twice a
month, as part of the car-washing process,
doesn’t create an insurmountable obstacle.
•Kinda reminds me of folks that are
in the habit of spritzing a “drying aid”
as part of their car-washing sessions:
-Isn’t that also a temporary fix, as it were?

I doubt seriously that it can be eliminated. Temporary removal is a more real approach.

Just my opinion, but I've seen calipers/hats in worse shape that were sanded and then painted with G2 and similar products that looked fine. Not sure on longevity. I think silver would look nice.

Clean up the rust on the caliper and on the rotor hat and get yourself the G2 caliper paint kit in the color of your choice. Unfortunately the rotor face is going to rust as its exposed metal.
Hyde's will not remove the rust and it does an ok job to stop the rust after a wash on the rotor.

I use Hyde’s and it works ok as far keeping rust off the face of the rotors drive it more.
