Inboard disk/rotor rust

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I got all my brake disks replaced recently and after only 3 weeks the inboard section started rusting. I know it's only surface rust but it's kinda annoying and totally ruins that clean/mint look that I'm going for. I know I can easily remove it with a wire brush but I'm sure it'll come back again pretty soon. Is there a safe heat-resistant product/paint out there I could use to sort this out for the long run? Perhaps a heat-resistant rust converter?

Thank you for your advice.

Any decent quality rotor is coated\painted at the factory and usually last years depending the environment. Sounds like you got very cheap Chinese ones which are usually bare metal. Some sort of caliper paint would probably be the best bet.

where'd you get it done?  As per @Eagle's advice above, sounds like they used cheap rotors.  How's the pad dust?
