brush and some kind of solvent?
a wire brush mate wouldnt use no solvent
Elbow Grease, available in all Good DIY places... :thumb:
We dont sell that at Homebase ?( :D

Get some brake cleaner (a solvent)

Available at most car shops - you just spray it on :thumb:

Dont get it in your eyes though it fcuking hurts

another use for brake cleaner is as easy start, we do it on the buses and it works a treat! stinks a bit though!

well i actually did it after the first post so i wouldn't worry too much... used blue hammerite and it worked a treat, didn't have to use any brake cleaner, just a quick scrub with a wire brush to get excess crap off

 

here's another question.... what happens if i don't put my front wheelarch liners back?

lol

get a pic up then :)

Why did you take the arch liners off to paint callipers ?(

They are there to stop your car turning into a puddle of rust :thumb:
