How to clean Brake Calipers?

[TobyNik]

Hi Guys

I have a set of used 330 front brakes to be installed soon and I was wondering how to clean the calipers before they are installed.

The calipers seem to be laden with a good coat of Brake dust that is just so stubborn to remove :furious:

Any ideas and suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

Simon, it was in our BMW.SG gift bags in like 2003 or something... Simple Green solution!

Simple Green - All purpose household cleaning products that are non-toxic, biodegradable and environmentally safer.

Actually can just use Jiff or some kinda degreaser to break up the brake dust!
