Anyone have any idea on how to prevent rust from building on on the brake rotors? Maybe a product out there that I can spray on the rotors to help protect it from water so rust doesn't build up?

Thanks
my car has no rust on the rotors? :confused: :p

keep the car inside the garage, control humidity if you can. rust on rotors is normal though.

Before I bought my house I had to keep my z outside for its first winter and I had only had a car cover over it with no major rusting other than the usual surface rust, so you could always try that.

OP, Nothing to worry about. I live in Hawaii and the humidity here is generally higher than the continental 48 and my rotors have rust on them the day after I wash the car or if driven in the rain. Always goes away after the next drive.

I hate when the rotors turn orange after a wash...but goes away quick

Just powder coat the rotors and match them to the calipers. You'd have one slick set of brakes.

Edit: Please don't powder coat your rotors.

Or the cat.

Cat should be carbon fiber wrapped.

CAUTION!! do not use WD-40 or any other lube on your brakes! Hopefully you knew that was a joke!

Got 2 ways to prevent rust on brake rotors,1]cover the car,2]park indoor,but do not put oil or WD-40..risk your & others life.

Or change to ceramics brakes.
