help on new break disk
 
hello every body,

Just bought new original break disks for my car from MB dealer. They come with a grey coating, do I have to remove it before use? or can they be just mounted with it?

thanks for reply

Where is this coating??? if its on the surface that the pads ride on then yes clean it off. Is the coating like a grease??

Thanks for the quick reply,

The coating is every where on the surface of the disk, it is dry , it not greasy it looks like a coating used for storage.

Which product should I use to remove it?

That coating is designed to be left ON. That coating helps with rotor break-in.

When you get ready to drive, go slowly and brake several times. speed up & brake a bit harder until the brakes stop the car normally.
