Default What the dust ?

It's no big deal I guess ..I did spent money to fix and time..I had Hawk HP+ pads and the dust... I have White painted wheels .Came with Corvette new and trying to keep it that way..Put on new Hawk Cermic front and rear ..Dust Dust and more dust I think it comes off easer that the HP+ dust...It's on the side on the car all over the place...I do Auto Cross 96 and it seees a little track time... I read were people that have these pads had very little dust..Am I doing something wrong or the people with no dust just driveing to the car show and 7-11.. They work Ok not as good as the HP+ ...Now what.... 1996 LT-4 C-5 front C4-rear brake..All new stuff stanless lines Ect..THANKS...
