Why not? Should be waterpoof. I clean my phones with alcohol. Whats the difference?
Seriously? Maybe that was a joke. Why don't you clean your phone with BrakeKleen and get back to us? No, wait, just kidding. It will probably melt it.

I was just kidding too... but man your response seemed very much like I struck a nerve. Not my intent... however challenge accepted!!! Posting from this (now very clean) device

Edit for those coming along later. No nerve struck. Good fun....

Sweet! No nerve struck, just in jest. I can't believe you did that! Wish I had the **** to try that with my $1100 phone. Wondering if it kills the Delta variant? Who needs hand sanitizer or microban when we've got this?

Dantheman1540 ....I sent the caliper to tRidiot , that's the last time it surfaced.

I'd like to do the 2 piston rears. Gonna need them.The 2021 calipers etc are here waiting to be installed so might as well do the 2 piston rears while in there. Wilwood brakes was the first choice but the extra money went to Whipple (also waiting install) Whipple was supposed to take 6-8 weeks and that would give me time to do the brakes first. Help me put together a rear 2 piston set up ?

There are a few people in this thread that said the NBS 2 piston rear will go right on an NNBS with just rotors, pads, and calipers. My concern was the parking brake but based on a quick look on Rock Auto, it looks like the parking brake shoes are the same just the retainers are different (which gives them different part numbers if the retainers are included with the shoes).

Here lately my 05 Escalade has felt slower during acceleration. It also pulls to one side during braking. Two weeks ago I was driving down the interstate and the whole car started shaking. I pulled over to check, but I didn't find anything. I got back in and the problem was gone. Yesterday I noticed that my brakes were sticking after coming to a stop. I got home and I could smell my brakes. Smoke was coming out of my drivers wheel well. Today I found this thread as luck would have it and now I'm going to upgrade to these new brakes. Currently I have the stock 17" wheels, but I have a set of 2010 Escalade 22" wheels that I hope will clear these bigger calipers.

Definitely report back on fitment. I'd have the same setup, and want verification that they'd fit before buying parts.
