They are getting better, a lot better compared to let`s say 10 years ago, but they are not just there yet.. I have bought a lot of Chinese stuff (electronic gadgets, knives, bike accessories, etc..) Quality varies from very very good to total crap.. But when it comes to brakes and other vital...

Purol + 3M Scotch-Brite (red - most agressive one) for cleaning and Purol + old cotton T-shirt for shine. All done by hand :)
