Re: 2001 corolla brakes
Typically a good cleaning of brake dust build-up and light buffing of the brake surfaces is all that is needed. Spray with brake cleaner and have a drip pan under to catch it...spread newspapers as well to protect the floor from splatter. Reapply grease to sliding points and to the adjustment wheel.
Buffing takes the gloss off the shoes and drums. I like to use a 3M rust and paint removal wheel and buff in a cross-hatch pattern. They will be grabbier(?) after this so just beware. Hope this helps!
