Well, I've seen this on the net & thought I'd show you all ;)
All very straight forward & not much labour involved :thmbs:

Basicaly what you need to get is:

A container to carry the cleaning fluid. Something big enough to get your componants in is a good start!!

Then some of this good stuff!!! for you, not the cleaning!!

Then a couple of these fellas:

Poor them in to your container....... Hay presto you got yourself an acid bath :)

Now what you need to do is get something to scrub with.... dish brush thingy or nail brush.... something with hard brisstles!!

Then drop your componant in to the acid bath, give it a scrub.

then simply leave in the container to soak over night!!

And then when the brakes warm up it makes you feel hungry, all you need to do is run the car on old chip shop oil and you have the right aroma!:evillaugh

Seriously though they came up looking nice!

Not bad at all!

I was going to try the other method which involves using sodium carbonate and a battery charger. The Tesco method looks way less hassle! :King

gotta give it a good scrub after with soapy water to get rid of the vinigar, but other than that it's so easy!!
