Hello mate, I live in Crawley so pretty close to you :)
Rentech in pourtsmouth is the best place round here, its a bit of a drive, but well worth it.
Come along to one of the local meets
That's why I asked.... They work very well on german cars it seems, just don't suit the Clio at all.
Not to worry, I'm saving for a set of those beautiful new ast's
Fair doos!
I think basically it doesn't matter, as long as your callipers aren't completely caked in s**t. You'll be fine. May as well do a thorough job of cleaning them though. Can't do any harm.
It doesn't specifically say something that doesn't leave a residue... But there's solvent cleaners that leave very little residue.
It actually says 'remove grease with hammerite brush cleaner'.
I'm sitting here with the hammerite can in front of me.
So follow my original suggestion.
- wire brush
- wash them with water
- brake cleaner / carb cleaner / paint thinner etc etc. Any solvent cleaner that doesn't leave a residue.
- spray with hammerite.
To be fair, if you've got a cage etc... And it looks like it spends time on track then it may look ok. But as said, it needs to have some meaning.
There's a fiesta st round the corner from me, it's very nicely modified, but the dickhead has put a massive name and number with a British flag next...
I was only considering them because I could get a brand new set for £500. But I guess I'll keep saving for one of the others... ( to be decided closer to the time)
I know the standard Gaz coilies get a slating on here, but gas anyone used the gold's at all? I know they make very good coilies for other marques......
Nimbus - classy
