[QUOTE="SilverBullet, post: 703463, member: 11244"] Thanks for the excellent recommendation bro. The description below seems an ideal application for brake calipers as well: "High-Temperature Resistant Coating for Wheels & Metals. 22PLE VM1 Signature Rim & Metal Coat is a glass-based sealant specifically formulated to resist high temperatures such as those experienced by wheels and other metal parts exposed to engine bay heat, exhaust heat or sunlight. Brake dust build-up, grease deposits and road grime are major causes of permanent damage to sensitive alloy wheels and exhaust. 22PLE VX1 Signature Rim & Metal Coat is a glass-based, high-silica sealant which forms a hard, glossy, hydrophobic and dirt repellent barrier between metalwork and potentially harmful contaminants. Features & Benefits: Easy to apply Resists temperatures up to 700 degrees Celsius! Ideal protection from brake dust & exhaust residue Non-stick properties inhibits brake dust build up & makes washing easier Very long lasting - one application lasts up to 12 months! Application Instructions: It's easy to apply; ensure metalwork has been washed, thoroughly dried and polished. Use an IPA wipe to ensure the surface is completely free from any oil or polish residue. Put a few drops of VM1 Signature Rim & Metal Coat onto an applicator pad and apply in a straight line motion. Allow to cure for 3 to 5 minutes, then make an initial wipe over with a microfibre, then buff properly with another clean microfibre. Once applied VM1 should be allowed to cure initially for 8 to 12 hours after which the vehicle can be driven and washed as required. Full hardening time requires 5 days. Once hardened, VM1 will offer a glossy, shiny, durable protective coat that will last up to 2 years!" Group buy anyone? Priced at only 42 pounds per bottle. Wish they're sold locally too. [/QUOTE]
