  Brian,

    Any  indication that this cleaner attacks the bearing material?

discolouring some.
It's enough for me to advice those that use this stuff to change the
bearings.

If the next guy cleaning parts lets me know a couple of days in advance,
I'll send them a cleaner to use as long as they report back to the group how
it worked.  It should take care of the carbon and won't bother the bearings.
Thanks, Andy

Andy, we will be cleaning 2 or 3 rotors next week.
They are really in foul shape.
We would try the cleaner, and write a review of it in comparison to Gunk
carb cleaner, and a couple of others.
