The metallic formula bonds to disc, drum and ABS-compatible components to help eliminate the high-frequency vibration that causes squeal, while also acting as a preventative measure on future brake jobs. Use it as a final step during pads or shoes replacement to improve initial bedding-in and reduce customer comebacks for noise complaints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this treatment reduce brake squeal?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe metallic particles in the CRC formula fill tiny imperfections and grooves on the braking surface, which reduces the vibrations that create squeal. By evening out contact between pad and rotor (or shoe and drum), the product lowers the tendency for harmonic resonance during braking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApplies as an even metallic coating to friction surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDamps high-frequency vibrations that cause noise\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImproves initial pad\/rotor contact after installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen and where should I apply it during a brake job?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse CRC De-Squeak as a finishing spray on rotors or drums every time you replace pads, shoes, or resurface rotors.
