First time gravity bleed with pads and rotors

A couple of pieces of tubing on the bleeders and you don't have to worry about getting fluid anywhere you don't want it.

The parts are easy to find in Canada. A friend of mine works for a an aftermarket shop so it only took me 24hrs to get them. You can do as chuck33079 said but I didn't bother and nothing got on the pad. when I do it next time instead of lifting the whole car I will just do one corner at a time then I don't have to get the whole car on stands. Don't rush and its really simple.
