It has been nearly three weeks since i washed my car and not a sign of brake dust on it. Its a 2011 GS vert and driven everyday to work and back and on weekends too. This armorall wheel protector is the best thing ever.

well after reading all of this it prompted me to finally order my 1521 carbotech pads. i installed them then bedded them in, and guess what? no more brake dust! and i mean none after 150 miles of hard driving, unbelievable product and service. i should have done them along time ago but i was waiting for more feedback between the hawks and carbotech pads. now several corvette owners i have spoken to had little luck with the hawks which was disappointing to me because hawks are cheap compared to the carbotech pads. well i guess you get what you payed for because im very happy with them, they feel no different then stock under normal braking and when you need to stop hard, they grab hard!!!! but silent, actually they are more quiet then stock, and i didnt think the stock ones were noisy until i made the switch. so no more hairspray stuff that only last a day or two for me.
Thank you for your business.

Last complete wash/wax for me was over two weeks ago. After posting my two cents yesterday I walked past the car & the wheels look perfect. Spotlessly clean.
The dust aggravating issue usually meant minimally hand cleaning/wiping the wheels -- IF I didn't want or need to wash the entire car, a royal PITA.
**Mind you I never drive the Z in rain, if it's not a nice day the ZCar stays parked.
So I repeat the stuff's a Blessing, to/for me.

Shhhhhhh, bear!
Let'em keep wiping and/or washing those suckers instead of spending the time hitting the road for a cruise in their beautiful Corvette.
