Simple Green

Hi there.

Just wanted to know if anyone ever used Simple Green to clean the grime off the rear brake calipers, and what results where achieved.

Thanks,

Benny

Re: Simple Green

Yes it works great just make sure thy are cold. I prefer the concentrated full strength vs the watered downed automotive formula.

Re: Simple Green

I just started using a product called Iron X for certain situations. It's expensive, but it dissolves iron deposits. You may be shocked at how clean it can get your calipers, with little effort.
