Cleaning of Rotors Cleaning of Rotors Cleaning of Rotors Cleaning of Rotors Cleaning of Rotors
The AeroRotors supplied with this kit are coated with a water-soluble, environmentally friendly rust
inhibitor. This coating MUST BE WASHED OFF WITH SOAP AND WATER before installation.
Brake cleaner is not as effective as soap and water. Even if it doesn’t look as if anything is coming off
the rotor, the rust inhibitor is there, and must be entirely cleaned. Rotors will quickly rust without
protection, so if the rotor is not rusty, it’s still coated. After cleaning, you may see the rotor start to
develop a slight rust color. This is normal, and indicates that all of the rust inhibitor has been
removed.

Proper rotor and pad bed-in is essential to the performance of your new brake system. Failure to
properly bed-in the brakes will seriously impact how well they work, and how long they will last.
The number one cause of brake vibration is uneven pad material deposition on the rotor. Proper bed-
in will greatly minimize such problems. Follow, as closely as possible, the bed-in procedure detailed
later in this manual, or refer to the StopTech website at www

Do not assume that your wheels will fit. An outline drawing of your StopTech Big Brake kit is
available on our website at www
www www www www.stoptech.com .stoptech.com .stoptech.com .stoptech.com .stoptech.com. Measure the distance from the outer face of your
stock caliper to the inner face of your wheel spokes, or make a template according to the instruc-
tions on the website, to determine if a wheel spacer is necessary. DO THIS BEFORE YOU IN-
STALL YOUR KIT!
