Too thick a coating, I treat my mastercylinder with a thin coating of ACF-50 and it leaves it semi-shiny not greasy.

Not as good as ACF-50 as FS365 is water soluble which means after every damp ride or wash you have to reapply more, not the case with ACF-50 as one coat will last a year (or more).

ACF-50 is used on military boats, ships, and aircraft which just shows how good it is.

A hair dryer to dry the calipers with, great idea! I''ll have to see if my girlfriend has a spare lying about...

Quick question tho kwak, d'you wash inside the caliper with the cold water as well - pads, rotor etc - to get all the road salt etc out?

Cheers!
