Deglazing brake rotors... was created by savedrider
Any problem using 80 grit crocus paper to deglaze the front brake rotors when I change the pads? I do this as normal procedure on all my trucks, just want to make sure there is no snaffoo in doing it on these rotors.

Thanks

Brake cleaner is fine for a final wash, but a quick circular honing with heavy grit sandpaper usually helps to seat the new pads better.
