Ok, i know what WD40 is. No need to explain that it’s a lubricant, and that brakes work by friction etc. etc. I know WD 40 isn’t supposed to get on the brakes.
I had to remove plasti dip off my wheels(screw plasti dip, i’ll never touch that stuff again!!), used WD40 to melt it and then pressure washed off all the dip. Somewhere along the way WD40 got on the rotors. They still work fine, car stops fine, nothing fell off, no sounds, brakes work as usual. But there’s this hazy coat that is lining the rotors now.
I’m gonna use IPA(or possibly brake cleaner) to clean the outside surface for now and see how it turns out, but what I’m wondering is that if it will effect the pads. I read somewhere that it messes with the pad material. Is this true?
