Hi guys Need some more of your valuable help and advice please? Under taking a restore and tidy up of me 748 and could with some advice with cleaning the brake dics. Got some very stubborn stains from years of brake dust and grime that I'm struggling to shift. Anyone know got any bright ideas of making this job a little easier as I'm starting run low of elbow grease now! You might think I'm being too pedantic of finicky, but I've come this far and I don#e want to start cutting corners yet
you could strip them and put new full floating bobbins in once stripped you could power wire brush the rotor....
I did mine on my 91SS recently. Don't use paint. I used a product called Wonder Wheels. It's meant for cleaning alloy wheels. I used it initially on my calipers and then bottom of my forks. It works well on ally but don't get it on anything else. It will dull shiny stainless steel. The trick to using it for me was to do it in the sink. Aply it with the supplied brush and quickly work it in to a foam then rinse it off with clean water. I masked off the bobbins and rotors with tin foil. The disks came up a treat.
Just to be clear, use it on the painted inner as it will wreck the steel outer. I cleaned the steel rotors with scotchbrite and brake cleaner.
