That's because the SRT8 has completely different pads than the "ordinary" 300C. This thread is about the Brembo brake system on the SRT8. Brake dust and rotor wear is not an issue on the regular 300C.

This won't address the rotor wear issue, but I was at Autozone today and picked up a product called "Michelin Brake Dust Repellant"... Maybe everyone already knows about this and whether it works or not but i'd never heard of it. I have not tried it yet but I will next time I wash my dad's SRT8.

Save your time. It won't work. Use it on your frying pan next time you want to cook eggs. Works great.

wonder what kinda flavor it will give the eggs? .... oh well I already bought it, figured it was worth a try. I'm usually skeptical about such things but have you actually tried this product, Rambit? Just curious ....oh and I'll let you know how those eggs taste unless they are poisonous :-)
