Doc’s Auto Parts Brake Parts Cleaner

Doc’s Auto Parts Brake Parts Cleaner:

Made for the hands that do the real work, Doc’s non-chlorinated Brake Parts Cleaner hits hard, cuts fast, and vanishes without a trace. This fast-evaporating, solvent-based formula blasts away brake dust, grease, oil, and brake fluid with zero oily film and zero residue, leaving parts clean and ready for maximum braking performance.

Formulated at 45% VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds), this high-performance cleaner delivers serious solvent strength for tough shop jobs. Due to VOC regulations, this product may be restricted or prohibited for sale and use in certain states. Check local and state regulations before purchase or use.

Free of chlorinated solvents, it’s a smarter choice for the shop. The cleaner you grab without thinking, because it never lets you down.

Product Details:

• 45% VOC formula for powerful cleaning performance
• Fast-evaporating formula dries quickly to prevent moisture contamination
• Residue-free cleaning that leaves surfaces ready for assembly
• High solvent strength helps dissolve brake dust, grease, and oils
• Versatile use on brake assemblies, clutch parts, and other unpainted metal components
• Non-chlorinated formula that is safer for the environment and certain materials

Safe Applications:

• Brake Pads (Friction Material):
  • Cleaner evaporates quickly and does not leave residue.
  • Safe for ceramic, semi-metallic, and organic (NAO) pads.
  • Helps remove oils/grease that could cause glazing or squeal,
• Brake Rotors (Cast Iron, Coated, Drilled/Slotted, Performance):
  • Safe on all rotor materials (standard cast iron, coated, or high-performance drilled/slotted).
  • Ideal for removing protective shipping oils before installation.
  • Ensures a clean surface for bedding new pads.

Cautions:

• Do NOT soak pads – A quick spray to remove contaminants is fine, but prolonged soaking can weaken adhesives that bond pad material to backing plates.
• Painted/Coated Areas – Many rotors have painted hubs or corrosion-resistant coatings. Avoid spraying heavily on painted areas unless the cleaner is labeled paint-safe.
• Rubber/Plastics – Keep spray away from rubber seals (caliper boots) or ABS wiring insulation unless verified safe.
• Regulatory Notice – This product contains 45% VOC and may not be compliant in certain VOC-restricted states or air quality districts

Treatment Plan:

To add to fluid: Check the supply reservoir every 2,000 miles.

1. Protect rubber, plastic parts, and painted surfaces from liquid stream and overspray.
2. Hold can 18 to 24 inches from surface to be cleaned; wet surface using short bursts.
3. For heavy deposits, repeat application as necessary.
4. Air dry or wipe down with a clean cloth.
5. Avoid breathing vapor or dust that may become airborne. Professional users should rad SDS and follow all OSHA regulations.
6. Runoff should be collected and disposed of properly.
