Is this high pressure enough for cleaning brake dust off alloy wheels on my Audi? Thanks.

I find it very effective for weekly cleaning of my alloy wheels (low profile) and caliper covers on an SUV. I use this nozzle plus my drying rags. It is better and quicker than when I used a smaller black fireman hose nozzle which also required two different size brushes to get the job done.

I wouldn't buy this product again. I realize that some people have had good luck, but that wasn't my experience with the two I bought.

As long as it isn't oily. I use it for fuel and oil filters on heavy equipment. If they aren't slick it works good. Brake clean helps if it is though.

If you do this, ONLY use it for brake fluid.If you get engine oil contamination in your brake fluid it will destroy the caliper and possibly the master cylinder seals.Brake seals are made from EPDM rubber - mineral oil will destroy EPDM rubber.Other than that - the only concern would be whether the hand pump will create high enough vacuum to do a vacuum bleed at the caliper. It might but I'm not sure.Rinse the pump with water when you are done - the brake fluid might destroy the pump if it sits in it. (water will dissolve the brake fluid)

I have used it on valve core removal on liquid line pressures of 300psi. With no loss. It should handle 30hg of vacuum

I polish my Audi and Volvo with this unit at about a 1 to 3 setting. I use Chemical Guys Pads and the results are amazing. Keep in mind its a random orbital which is the key technology for using an orbital for polishing/waxing a car.

This product is a combination of solvents. It will remove DUST from brake surfaces, but not rust. Rust is a chemical reaction that's not easily reversible.You would need to mechanically remove the rust (sanding, sand blasting, milling).If this is for the braking surface, simply using the brakes and rinsing with this would be enough unless the rotors are very pitted.If you mean on all of the non-braking surfaces, you would need to sand-blast or acid etch to remove the rust, and then apply a high-temperature paint, or other protectant.

Yes. I used it in all parts when reforming my front brakes and it works perfectly. Really great grease because it's compliant with rubber boots.

I think it should work because you can use this smoke machine to check brake lines, EVAP system, exhaust system, and intake manifold leaks. I don't see why you can't use it for a/c system or air brakes. the only thing is make sure that you empty the system you are checking.

This works better than PERFECT ... FELLOWES 99790 Air Duster, buy it here on Amazon. I have been using it for years on my Braun 7526.

Although I have never cleaned any items but brass, I don't see why it would not clean any type of metal. The cleaning medium of crushed walnut shells is less abrasive than other cleaning agents and is inexpensive to change which may be necessary with dirtier small automotive parts.

Absolutely. Tons of pressure that you can adjust. This is good for cleaning ANYTHING

I just used it with a 1/2 impact wrench today to rotate tires, worked great! Don't expect to open a tire shop with it, but for occasional use it's more than adequit. I set the output pressure up to 120 PSI to get the most out of my impact gun.

I use brake cleaner in mine, there is slight leakage for me, try a different nozzle.

I am using it on my 4000 psi washer and it works great for cleaning tire marks from my driveway.

Tools using continuous air, or blowing, I don't think it would maintain enough pressure. Works great for nail guns, pumping up tires.

Yes. Its stainless steel, good luck messing it up. Brake cleaner seems to work well for soot removal.

I doubt it would generate enough pressure. Its a tiny compressor designed for actuating the lockers. ARB does make a slightly larger twin tank compressor that duals as locker actuator and will add air to tires. Google for comparitive specs.
