AMSOIL BRAKE AND PARTS CLEANER

When you need this cleaner

Use it on brake pads, calipers, drums, and other brake parts, plus other components that picked up oil, grease, or brake fluid. On an ATV or UTV, that usually means a leaky seal, overspray from another job, or trail grime that worked its way into the friction surfaces.

Pull the wheel and you can usually reach the caliper, pad edges, and backing plate well enough to clean them in place. You avoid turning a simple cleanup into a full caliper removal and a brake bleed.

What the formula is built to do

This formula is chlorinated, non-flammable, and free of volatile organic compounds, with a Level 1 aerosol rating, the lowest of the three flammability levels. It cuts petroleum soils quickly without adding a flammable vapor cloud next to hot exhaust or live electrical connections.

It dries quickly and leaves no residue, which matters because a cleaner that swaps oil for its own film just gives you a different contaminated surface. Clean friction faces help quiet squeal and chatter that started with oil or brake fluid on the pads.

How to use it

Shake the can well. Start at the top of the part and wash the dirt and oil down and off so the mess runs away from the metal you already cleaned. If the part is filthy, spray again instead of soaking it in one heavy pass.

Use the extension straw when you need a tight stream. On a compact quad brake, the caliper bracket, line fitting, and rubber boot can sit an inch apart, and the straw keeps the solvent on the metal instead of soaking the boot.

Before you spray

Do not spray while the machine is running, and do not spray hot parts. Shut it down and let the brakes cool. A rotor after a long descent is hotter than it looks.

Spot-test rubber, paint, and plastic first. Chlorinated solvent can attack those materials, and on a powersports machine the boots, seals, and painted tubes sit right next to the brake hardware. Wipe off overspray instead of letting it dry where it should not be.

Work with fresh air and eye protection. The product can irritate your eyes, and you should not breathe the vapor or mist. Keep runoff out of storm drains and waterways. It is toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects, and it is also labeled as suspected of causing cancer, so treat ventilation and cleanup as part of the job.

Storage and where you can buy it

The can is pressurized and can explode if it gets too hot. Keep it out of direct sun and below 50°C (122°F). Do not pierce or burn it, even when it is empty. A closed cab or truck in summer heat can pass that limit fast, so store it on a shaded shelf, not in the machine.

BPCSC-EA is the single 19 oz. can and BPCSC-CA is the case of twelve. This chlorinated formula is not sold in California, New Jersey, or Canada. If you are in one of those markets, use the non-chlorinated 14 oz. version that is available in all 50 states.
