    Hi All,

    I am rebuilding a brake calliper and i have some light corrosion on the piston,

    The Haynes manual suggests using Crocus Cloth but where might i get it, I have tried around and no body has even heard of it,

    I know i should probably get a new calliper but this is only an old jeep that will never see the road,

    So if anyone can suggest where to buy Crocus Cloth it would be great,

    Thanks,

    Stephen

    Basically it's sandpaper
    Crocus cloth is a type of sandpaper made from natural minerals and mounted on a soft-cloth backing.

    Yes i know its like sandpaper or emery paper but its super super fine paper that will do little damage to the piston where as emery or sandpaper is way too coarse,

    Any ideas where i might get Crocus Cloth so???
