Brake caliper vapour blasting for restoration work
Clean caliper bodies and metal brake components before coating, rebuild or restoration, with each job checked from photos first.
Or call us on 07856 528217
Brake calipers are one of the parts we regularly put through our vapour blasting service. Steel parts that need heavy paint, rust or scale stripping go through our dry blasting service instead. We do both for one-off jobs and regular trade batches.
Preparation for restoration
Vapour blasting can be useful on stripped caliper bodies where a clean, even surface is needed before the next stage.
- Photo assessment before quote
- Each part checked before blasting
- Good for many classic and performance restoration parts
- Not a substitute for safety inspection or professional rebuild
Safety-critical parts need care
Brake components are safety critical. We handle cleaning/preparation only and whether a part can be blasted depends on condition, material and required finish.
- Remove seals and pistons where required
- Confirm coating/rebuild plan
- Do not send parts with unknown safety issues without context
- Final mechanical safety remains with the rebuilder/installer
Send clear photos.
We confirm the process, likely prep, price and turnaround before any work starts. Most jobs are turned around in 2 to 5 days depending on size, condition and workshop load.
