Anti-Seize
So I finally installed my 20mm / 25mm Eibach spacers. After a long drive I noticed some of the Permatex anti seize splashed all over my wheels and over the rotor hat. I know how stubborn this product is to remove and wiping it with a rag will only smear it more and make it worse. Does anyone know a good product I can use to dissolve it.

I'm pretty sure brake cleaner will take care of it.

I forgot to mention that my wheels have PlastiDip on them. Maybe diluted degreaser?

I meant for your rotors. It's just grease with copper or nickel powder mixed in. Clean your wheels however you can and just reapply the dip as needed. It's dip, not powdercoat.

it may have been added to keep the aluminum wheel from seizing to the cast rotor hub. a dissimilar metals thing. wipe the excess but leave some at the centering part of the hub.

I used it on the back and front of the spacers so they wont seize up to the rotor or wheel. I screwed up by applying too much which caused it to sling all over the wheels. Plastidip is coming off this weekend.
This thread is worthless now. Move along people. |
