blacktopsurfer 10 Posted October 29, 2012 As the title states really, want to give the discs a freshen up and also the suspension is showing signs of surface rust. Have been looking into some rust remover baths, namely under the Bilt Hammer brand. In particular their Deox C Concentrated rust remover but have heard the gel is better, has any one had any experiences with this product or similar they'd like to recommend.... In terms of rust prevention they also manufacture a product called Electrox which looks pretty good to. also, any fail safe techniques on how to clean the discs friction area would be much appreciated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stonejag 10 Posted October 30, 2012 I find a couple of hard stops from 80+mph shines the discs up nicely ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted October 30, 2012 I've bought the bilt hammer deox stuff, used the gel and the powder. I found the powder good for soaking stuff in, didn't really get on with the gel, it works, but messy and a bit awkward. Also to note, don't buy it, Its just citric acid and much cheaper on ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1000g-1kg-Citric-Acid-food-grade-Long-shelf-life-for-brewing-bath-bombs-descaler-/270958120373?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Food_SM&hash=item3f165ccdb5 ^^does exactly the same job, i also heard that the deox gel is just that powder mixed with wallpaper paste. I wouldn't bother doing the discs though, i did my wheel hubs, calipers etc and they came up like new.. I took them all off though and soaked in the citric acid ---------- Post added at 10:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 AM ---------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
