The can instructions do not mention rust but according to 3M Tech Support this product will remove rust from brakes.

No. This product is for removing oil, grease, brake fluid and other contaminates. For rust you will need to use an abrasive product like the OTC-8342.

This product is a combination of solvents. It will remove DUST from brake surfaces, but not rust. Rust is a chemical reaction that's not easily reversible.You would need to mechanically remove the rust (sanding, sand blasting, milling).If this is for the braking surface, simply using the brakes and rinsing with this would be enough unless the rotors are very pitted.If you mean on all of the non-braking surfaces, you would need to sand-blast or acid etch to remove the rust, and then apply a high-temperature paint, or other protectant.

you could use it on a rotor but i don't know what good it would do.rust on a brake rotor won't hurt any thing. as soon as you use your brakes the surface rust will be gone on the rotor as for the rust elsewhere it will work fine

No it wipes and cleans up easily. It cures to the consistency of dried silicone caulk. The heat from braking causes it to cure.

No, it does NOT fit disc brakes well. There is a risk that the disc hits or get squeezed .

Yes, it does. Not a lot of brake lube, but probably the exact amount, if you get it in only the right places. I already had extra on hand and needed it.

A good question. I don't know. I used the product daily on my face only while wearing a white rash guard for 4 days. No rust.

As far as I know it doesn't prevent rust, just gets rid of it which it does very well.

Yes, mine began to rust almost immediately at the point where the chrome enters the caddy. I had four. Eventually they all broke at the hinge points where the caddy connects with the side grippers.

I imagine so. I have this caddy since November 2012 and for sure there is NO RUST whatsoever! It's the best caddy.

Yes. I used it in all parts when reforming my front brakes and it works perfectly. Really great grease because it's compliant with rubber boots.

The directions specifically state to use a 50 grit sanding disc to prep the surface to bare metal. You cover all bare metal with the adhesive so you get no surface rust.

Idk, I used it to flush the rust out of my radiator. I've had good results with glass scrub http://www.amazon.com/Glass-Science-Scrub-Cream-Cleanser/dp/B008O6VMDG just keep the windshield wet and it works great!

No, they are ready to install. Just spray them with brake cleaner and wipe them off with shop paper towels. It cleans off any coatings used in shipping to prevent rust.

Yes. Its stainless steel, good luck messing it up. Brake cleaner seems to work well for soot removal.

I used it on both rusted areas and non-rusted and it worked well, but it was amazing on rust. Covered the rust and really protects well. I actually painted under a trailer and through mud and rain it holds up great.

Yes. It does a great job with rust. You may have to do more the one application, but it will work. Put it on the rust, brush it a little and hose it off.
