I have a pair of brake pads (for my motorbike) which have ended up with a fair bit of fluid on them. Should I throw them away (as suggested) or can they be soaked in anything or left for a period to make them usuable?

Dave i take it when you say fluid it's brake fluid and if that's the case then yes you've got to bin them because there's a anti-corrosion property in brake fluid to help prevent internal corrosion of the copper pipes. Don,t risk you're life for the sake off a few quid . Rik
