[QUOTE="cobrajeff96, post: 1514848, member: 29141"] Don't use anything too abrasive on the firepath. Start small with a scotchbrite or some finer steel wool pads and use elbow grease. If it's not enough, start with 400 grit sand paper and see how that works. Probably the most abrasive you should go is 200 grit in my opinion. Blow off the residue after a few minutes of scrubbing and don't breath it in. Can of acetone and clean rags once all of it is gone. Light film of antiseize on the rotor hat where it makes wheel contact is always a time saver for later jobs, as well as where the rotor contacts the hub. Basically put a light film anywhere but the firepath. Or a spray can of Zinc will do the same. [/QUOTE]
