[DML] Re: Wanted: Completely different brake setup

["therealdmcvegas" <dmcvegas@xxxxxxx>]

Another thing that I do when changing brakes is I drench the rotors, 
and calipers with Brâkleen untill ALL dirt and grime are off. Then
I 
take 80 grit sandpaper to the discs to scuff them up, remove glaze, 
and help break the pads in. Then spray them down again to clean off 
any dust. Place some cardboard underneath the brakes while working to 
avoid a mess.

When installing new pads, I stick the anti-squeal shims on, and 
slather the backs of the pads with anti-squeal grease. And then I 
install the pads with the anti-rattle springs. Back pads on my car I 
have found don't need the spring clips, or shims. But every car is 
different out there.
