Cleaning 9 year old brake calipers

[BrianMcLeod]

So this truck never had the brake calipers clean! I just used iron-x, soap and a brush here are some pics!



I put a coating on them but I don't know how they will hold up any ideas??

You should paint them with high temperature paint. It's available in many colors in rattle cans at most car product stores.

What a great idea, never though of using Iron X on calipers! I'll try the same thing, as I'm going to paint mine shortly.

thanks!

They came out looking nice.

Looks good.

Permanon or Hydro 2. Then hit the wheels & calipers every few months. Works for me. Been doing it a few years now.

I might do that, gonna see how they hold up for now

Great job. Coating won't hold up to break temps. High Temp Paint

Looks like I'll be painting, would you tape off or pull the caliper off?
