I cut the top of my right index finger to the bone on my drivers front caliper. It didnt hurt, but I still knew I had cut it. It was so deep I could see my liver. There was no blood for about 30 sec. So I got a lesson in the layers of finger meat before the blood started flowing. Like a trooper I finished washing the car, and filling up w/ gas before go to the doc. It looks ok. I think I'll live, but beware of brake calipers while cleaning wheels.
You are the man. I've had scabs on my knuckles for a year now. Never fails when it is close to healing I find the brake caliper again. But I agree you never stop for a little blood.
It's sooo much easier to put the car up on jackstands, pull off the wheels and clean them while they are off the car. It's also a great time to clean the fender wells!
