Brake pad dust

[lmoengnr]

Not sure if there factory pads

HSV pads were really dusty.

So u reckon just spray a bit of wheel cleaner on them n then just pressure wash it off?

Think of it as a weekly job, work the wheel cleaner in with a cheap paint brush.

Wheel cleaner, agitate, high pressure off.

Also, DO NOT use a chamois on your car.

Microfibre only.

Has any 1 used a duster? Would it work?

Call Autosmart and buy some truck steam. Get a pump bottle from repco tell them you want the ones the mechanics use.
Put 3 parts truck steam and one part water and spray on the wheels.
Now let it soak for 30 seconds and high pressure wash it off and the job is done.

Until the pads wear out and you replace them with a harder less dusty pad.

I had AP’s with factory pads on my old Caprice and they were shocking for dust.
This next set of AP’s I am going to put on the VE will be running EBC Reds. Should be much more manageable! Calipers and rims will be ceramic coated too so I don’t see any major issues.

They will still get dusty.
