Resurfacing brake rotors has faded away #1 because new rotors have become inexpensive #2 the labor time it takes to perform the process and the equipment needed to do the job. I am a holdout I do it just because I like to BUT learning fast it s not cost productive. The time it takes to do the process is actually costing me money you could be doing other more profitable jobs in that time. The minimum discard thickness is there for a reason tho very few check it.
New rotors have a 2 year warranty if issues arise change them out life will be good.
I perform a brake fluid flush/change it s a EZ sale adds profit to the job and no doubt a benefit that s noticeable.
Warring do not use Permatex Ceramic extreme brake parts lubricant the purple kind it s not rubber safe it will lock/jam the caliper pins up it swells the rubber seals It s to be used on metal to metal parts only. I don t like the green either I use CRC life is good
