General Brake Rotor Question?

Philossifer · 06-14-2005, 10:57 AM

I bought new front rotors even though the old ones still have some meat on them.... I want to store the old rotors so how do I keep them from rusting?

Coat them with oil, grease???? Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Phil

Have them resurfaced, coat them in oil, and store them in a plastic bag. They'll be ready to go when you need them.

Spray WD40 on a sheet of newspaper. Then wrap them in that newspaper. Then put that in a Ziploc bag.
