Disc/pad change DIY

From what I've seen on YouTube you can actually do that and it just rubs away on the contact area after a short bit of braking, leaving the non-contact areas protected from rust.

Exactly

A quick read of this thread left me thinking people were lacquering the disc contact surfaces, presumably not?

Hahaha entire disc buddy including the braking surface
3 coats and left for 2/3 days

The area gets taken off upon first use of brakes and leaves any unswept area nice and shiny

Laquer is hard but not versus new pads and braking

You learn something new..... that's what I like about this place :hattip:

But at least you thought it through most just do and learn heard way hahah

But honestly it's only a film of laquer versus the bedding in paste on a pad with stopping pressure for a big car a speed, it's not going to win,)

But stops any horrid rust rings around the face and the rest of disc
