What can you use Brake Away on?
Brake Away is a fast-evaporating brake and parts cleaner that leaves no residue. It is safe for metal brake components and works across a wide range of shop applications:
- Brake rotors, drums, and calipers
- Brake pads and shoes before installation
- Metal parts and machined surfaces
- Clutch discs and flywheel faces
- Engine components and valve covers
- Shop tools and equipment
Why use a dedicated brake cleaner instead of degreaser?
General degreasers leave a film. On brake surfaces, any residue affects friction and can cause brake fade or noise after the job. Brake Away evaporates completely and leaves nothing behind, so rotors and pads make clean contact from the first stop.
It also works faster than most shop degreasers. Spray and it is ready in seconds, which keeps jobs moving.
How do you use Brake Away?
Spray directly on the surface from 6 to 12 inches away. Let it run and carry contamination off. No wiping needed on brake components. For shop parts and tools, wipe with a rag after spraying. Work in a ventilated area and keep away from open flame.
Where can you buy Brake Away?

Frequently asked questions
Is Brake Away chlorinated or non-chlorinated?
Chlorinated. If you're looking for a non-chlorinated brake cleaner that can be recycled with waste oil, check out our Brake Buddy.
Can I use it on painted surfaces?
Avoid painted surfaces. Brake Away is a strong solvent cleaner designed for bare metal. It can lift paint or clear coat on contact.
Is it safe on rubber seals and O-rings?
Extended contact with rubber can cause swelling or degradation. Spray brake components and let it run off without soaking seals or brake hose connections.
How does it compare to carb cleaner?
Similar solvency but different purpose. Carb cleaner is formulated to dissolve varnish and fuel residue. Brake Away is formulated for oil, grease, and brake dust with a clean evaporation profile suited to friction surfaces.
How much does a case cost for a shop?
