Removing rust from Brake Hats
At least I believe that's what they are called. Not the rotor part but the area between the rotor and the wheel. Mine are all rusty and I would like to clean them up as well as coat them somehow to make sure they don't rust again. Can I do this even though they are already very rusty or will I have to dump money on new rotors? I would like to do this to my calipers also.

Kragen and other auto supply places sell brake cleaners that were pretty effecting at removing light oxidation of my rotor hats and flushing out crap from the vented parts of the disk...made a noticeable improvement...
