If your cap seals well to the reservoir, and your valve stem doesn't
leak, you should be able to apply air pressure. Don't exceed about 15
psi. If you have an air leak, it should be at your cap and you should
be able to hear it.
I have some very rusty UFO rotors I replaced shortly after I got my
first V8 because I hadn't learned about the Italian tuneup to get rid of
brake vibrations. The rotors are about 23mm thick. I still have two
cars with UFOs, but I also have two new sets of rotors in a box, so I
could part with the rusty ones easily.
