texasz Posted February 15, 2004 Share #1 Posted February 15, 2004 What good does this do? Wouldn't the zinc plating wear off the first time you drive the car? Is it worth having or not really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ManyZs Posted February 15, 2004 Share #2 Posted February 15, 2004 I don't see how zinc plating would stand up to the high temps for very long... Might be OK on a show car that never gets driven though.....:stupid: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240ZX Posted February 17, 2004 Share #3 Posted February 17, 2004 It would seem to me, that the plating on a rotor is intended to prevent rust from forming on the non pad contact areas....nothing more than an appearance think. Wouldn't you all agree? But, like 2ManyZs mentions, how long will the plating last when subjected to the heat of heavy braking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
