Cleaning brake calipers

Recommended Posts

Is it ok to use soapy water to clean up the outside of brake calipers before cleaning the pistons and stuff with fresh brake fluid? I've got a pair that I took off my bike and they are minging.

Soap's fine to use in terms of will it corrode them etc, but it's just not especially good at it. Get some pukka brake cleaner spray and a stiff toothbrush, should bring 'em up a treat.

Thanks. I'll use soap n water to remove the worst of the salt :icon_blackeye: and get some brake cleaner tomorrow.
