Re: [ST] Brake vs Carb Cleaner

[david.funk@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Brake cleaner is very very hard on somekinds of plastics. I don't know what it does to rubber, but it will dissolve some plastics.

I would not use braker cleaner for anything but brakes, or disassembled metal parts. Never on or in the bike.
