Without rust and squeak: 4 ways to keep your brakes looking like new

Who would have thought that in the twenty-first century we will face the problems of car repair and maintenance! Unfortunately and ah, but it happened. Not only was there a severe shortage of consumables and components on the market, but the military also raised prices obscenely. Under the current circumstances, many drivers started to maintain the important parts of their cars themselves, especially the suspension and brakes. How to do this most effectively, the AvtoVzglyad portal discovered.

In all fairness, it should be noted that while some companies, crushed by the sanction loop, are leaving Russia, others are eager to attack. And they do so with an enviable persistence, slowly but surely gnawing at their market share. And if the Chinese have become more active in the automotive segment, then in the sector of components, oils, lubricants and service preparations there are many players from all over the world, including the same European countries! In other words, we certainly won’t be without the experience of Old World specialists.

This fully applies to the use of modern professional automotive chemicals, without which no self-respecting auto mechanic, as well as many sophisticated owners of “iron horses”, can do without. They are helped by products that not only help to maintain, but also improve the important functions of various components in the car. How, you ask? Yes, very simple.

Take, for example, a brand with German roots called reinWell. By the way, this brand, registered in Germany more than 13 years ago, was founded by Russian entrepreneurs. It is they who today provide our market with products that fully comply with all international standards and technical requirements. No wonder, because the product line used advanced technologies from European giants in the field of automotive chemical goods. And at the same time, there are no problems with logistics, because the production itself is completely localized in our country.

The reinWell product range is very broad. It also includes tools for the maintenance of the car’s braking system, the usability of which directly affects driving safety. And not only the driver and passengers, but also other road users. So you don’t have to be a car expert to understand: keeping the brakes in good condition is extremely important. It is clear that in this matter one cannot do without high-quality automotive chemicals. Let’s take a look at which drugs should receive attention in the first place.

AGAINST DIRT AND REAGENTS

Dirt, as well as reagents, with which Russian roads are abundantly treated, adversely affect the operation of braking mechanisms. Additional problems are caused by oil and soot, which coat not only the brake pads, but also calipers, liners and other chassis elements.

The brand cleaner reinWell RW-38, an aerosol, is called upon to combat the pest, which is also suitable for degreasing the surface. The drug removes contaminants due to the intensive action of special chemistry, on whose formulation, as already noted, leading technologies from Germany worked. With a powerful jet, the product removes any deposits, including grease and oil. The result is clear: the spray cleans quickly and effectively.

WE REMOVE THE CRACK OF THE PAD

One can’t help but agree that the creaking when braking is annoying and unnerving. But much more unpleasant is the fact that strange noises can indicate the risk of imminent jamming of the brake pads. And this is already fraught with serious consequences. To prevent such disasters, the brake pads must be treated with reinWell RW-55 grease. It contributes to jamming and the occurrence of an unpleasant cracking. The paste, which has high adhesion to the surface, is not washed out by water, can withstand temperature extremes and is not afraid of mechanical stress. Processed, and safely on the road.

SO THAT THE CALIPERS DO NOT STICK

Not all car owners know that calipers can get stuck due to dirt. Why brake discs and pads quickly become unusable, the handlebars begin to “lead” from one side to the other, and the tires “eat” the rubber unevenly. The prospect is not encouraging to say the least. Therefore, the caliper guides must be lubricated with special compounds.

Such as, for example, reinWell RW-56 paste. It is based on polyurethane and is compatible with elastomers. The product is resistant to thermal stress, extremely low temperatures, corrosion and moisture. After spending five minutes processing, you can forget about possible problems for a long time.

PROTECTION AGAINST OVERHEATING AND CORROSION

When servicing the brakes, also pay attention to the aluminum spray lubricant, which also eliminates the harmful effects of dirt, moisture and high temperatures. It is exactly these properties that the reinWell product with the RW-53 index has.

Aluminum spray is optimally suited for the treatment of caliper guide joints, pads and plates, creating an anti-corrosion effect. They are also recommended to process the joints of alloy wheels with hubs (to eliminate contact corrosion), and at the same time their studs. The use of the drug greatly facilitates the disassembly of brake and suspension parts after their long operation.
