Rusty Disks

[Jonny1*2]

My current OEM discs have major rust issues round the edges. As i'm looking at getting Brembo HC next is it possible to protect the edges of the discs to prevent this, or are the HC's less prone to rusting?

Seem some peope paint the edges with hammerite, Dont know if it works or not though.

Paul painted his up. I'd not worry about it tbh.

it just looks crap when you look throught the wheel and there is a lovely read edge to them. Bedford was the main culprit. Looked trophy red after that

could try some red oxide primer them some VHT paint

hmm, not a bad idea. Presumably caliper paint would work in place of VHT?

Ive just fitted Brembo HC's, around the top edges and the bit the wheel rests on its covered in a black anti corrosive paint already.

I masked up as much of the disc face as i could, Painted with Halfruads black high temp paint on the center of the disc and on the edge, Left to dry then went for a good braking session, Still looks good.

rubb it down untill its shiny then spray them, dont worry about getting paint on the discs it does no harm it just rubs off the first time you touch the brakes.

did mine and no rust since.
