but not the end of the world after the replacement. you can wire brush the rust off, clean it off real well with some RC car motor spray, mask off the area where the rotors make contact with the pads, and spray away using matte black duplicolor engine enamel paint. i dont know if you even need to use primer. i say this cause i used primer last year on my dd to paint the center hub, and it chipped away. the previous fit, i painted it directly without primer and it held for 5yrs. |

my rotors always rust after I wash the car. One application of the brakes and a couple of rotations of the rotors and they're back to silver. What is the purpose of treating them for rust prior to installation? And what product do you use?

So that the part near the center ( where pad does not make contact) does not rust.

There is very, very little rust even on my OEM rotors - the fronts are almost rust free and the rears have just a tiny bit. The EBC rotors I'm getting are painted black, so I don't think any rust protection is necessary. Even the surface of the rotors is black - the pads will remove any paint they touch during bedding process but everything else remains painted.
