33596, Caliper rebuild: is this an issue? Posted by streetlightning, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM I tore apart my caliper to have it powdercoated. When i got it back, i noticed the bores have been blasted! Are thes ruined now? Or just re-assymble? Thanks.

This. They should be fine after a nice honing. I doubt enough material was removed to prevent the O-rings and seals from doing their job.

This has happened to me however in the past. In my experience I brake honed the walls first, then lightly polished them with a dremel polishing kit. The seal was excellent and lasted for years without issue.
