Brake Caliper detailing
I'm sure there are lot's of other riders like me that don't want to drop big $$ for Chrome brake calipers. I bought the caliper inserts for my Ultra Classic the other day, and before installing them I wanted to clean the calipers up a bit. Seeing they had the same black finish as my engine jugs, I grabbed the spray can of S100 engine case britener. Gave each one a couple quick shots and WOW did it make them pop! Just be sure and take a rag and cover your rotor and don't go crazy with it and spray on the tire. A few quick squirts then take your finger and work it around the little areas.It dries to a rich black finish.

Yeah, it works pretty good. Another thing that works well on other parts of your bike is Turtle Wax's tire shine...after reading the back of the label it says you can use it on plastic, rubber, and other surfaces. I used it on my black control switch housing and man it really cleaned them up and made them look blacker. These were getting to look dull from the sun fading them.
