All break rotors rust. to get rid of the rust simply hit your breaks, its just surface rust. I dont think its such a hot idea to paint your rotors.

so you are going to paint your rotors for the paint to come off when you stop?

i was wanting to paint them so the parts that aren't touched by the pads dont rust, i know the rust on the part that the pads stop on will just come off when i use them

btw how do i check my blinker fluid?

LMFAO..there is no such thing as blinker fluid. but hey check out your muffler bearings.

I know what you're talking about, the parts that dont touch such as the rotor "bells" as i call them. Don't know the actual technical term for them. Rotora has them already coated but since you don't have them you could paint them whatever color but i do know rotora states they "E-coat" their shat. don't know if it's a special paint or what.

rotors=Iron
Iron+water=Rust

i painted mine with caliper paint also.

powerslot "plus" rotors dont rust because theyre 2 pieces, one not made of iron and painted

Those are big brake kits. Powerslot also makes OEM spec rotors. I like my Rotora's tho especially with the E-coat. Never did like the rust look on the bell area.

but the oem replacement rotors will rust unless he paints them.
