If it's on there after it rains or the car has been sitting a while, it's perfectly normal. After a good application of the brakes, the heat will have that dissolve away. You have nothing to worry about. A bunch of the cars that are on our lot have a little rust on teh rotors, but it's no issue at all. Trust me.

good to know.. I was going to ask the same question. But I'll ask this instead - how does it form so quickly?? Is it because the rotor is constantly a 'fresh surface' due to the consistent application of the brakes?
