Where to find anti-squeal for brake pads?
Alright, so I put new brakes on and the pads did not come with any sort of anti-squeal gel like most brake pads. Bottom line, they sound worse with new pads on than my old, worn to the metal, cracked pads.
I've stopped in 3 or 4 different auto parts stores and they keep telling me "Oh, you have to get that with new pads. If your brakes are squealing it's time to replace them, our parts guy can help you." No, dumbass, I just put NEW ones on, I JUST need the gel! So, basically, does anyone know where I can JUST get the anti-squeal stuff????? |

I've never had that stuff actually work. Most parts stores have a spray-on anti-squeal you paint on the back of the pads.

I did NOT use my existing rotors, that's a pretty big :nono: with most new pads, definitely with high performance pads. The stock rotors actually weren't grooved too bad, I replaced them with a little beefier Raybestos Professional rotors and so far with 1k on them and 100 miles of open tracking, they're fine, rotors show no signs of wanting to groove and the pads get you stopped in a hurry once they're warm. |
ive picked it up at autozone by itself easily before.
