Im replacing the pads front and rear and the rear is really rusty on the bolts that hold the pads in and are a funky square head.with all the rust im afraid of rounding them off is there a speacial tool needed?

8 or 10mm wrench I think. Put some kind of oil in it and let it soak.

I always dry my brakes with compressed air after washing.
