I just bought a set of used front brake rotors for a Suzuki GSXR 600 2001 Motorcycle. These rotors are practically new but they have been sitting around for awhile so they are kind of rusty and a bit of an eyesore. I’ve been told you can remove the rust with sandpaper, getting them milled, or just riding them till the brake pads scrape them off. Does anyone know if liquid rust removers (Must for Rust, Bondo Rust Remover etc.) are safe on rotors? I have seen commercials where they show a rusty rotor being cleaned and the rust being dissolved using rust remover gels. Does anyone know if it is safe to use them on rotors and if it will affect braking after they are installed? What is the best rust remover?
Do not use a liquid , stay with what you have been told.
I would reccomend the sand paper . Turning the rotor is a waste of good “Meat”.
Stay with a dry – resurfacing techniqe whatever you do
