Got home this morning from work and thought I would make a start on the long over due front brakes.

I never do things by half so decided new disc's and pads. Thought it was a shame to put rusty calipers on so got some new ones. Didnt want to stick the old brake flexi's onto the new calipers so got new ones of them and couldnt get the flexis of the hard lines so made new ones of them.

All bled up and the old fluid flushed through, just need to check it over in the morning and thats another job of the list :thumbsup:

No looking back,,

You are miles away... Not a hard job job... The new hard lines from the abs are a little fidley but not hard if you have a proper flaring tool.

dont mix it all in one go.

It looks like you get F#####k all in the tin but when Mixed it goes a looooooooooong way.

Plenty to do 6 calipers. Plenty for a full engine block. Plenty for discs and drums and more besides.

And it still looks like that 6 years on.

I like the stuff, being an epoxy mastic style of paint it is very hard wearing after its gone hard.
