Camaro 2SS Surface rust on rotors/hub.

Recently we have had a lot of rain here.....and Ive noticed that I have surface rust on the rotors/hub; is there something I can purchase to apply & remove it? I recently bought my Camaro SS & I am new to the Camaro Members only club.....lol. Any suggestions?

Very normal for cast iron brake rotors (in any vehicle) to rust in high humidity/rain. Typically, you drive it and they get all shiny again.

Yup just drive it like normal and it'll go away by itself. It's very common. As a matter of fact when I'm at a dealership if I see a car with really rusty brakes I know it's been sitting for some time. (And not FLYING out of the dealership floor room as the sales man will try to say.)
