Relating to the OP
I have taken to a habit of: daily blasting air from the shop compressor between my pads to clean them. Sends a dark puff of brake dust flying.
This doesn't *seem* detrimental, the brakes work fine and feel smooth with no squealing or grinding...
it doesn't seem to be counterproductive to the bed-in of the rotor/pads.
any harm in regularly blowing the brake dust out like this?
might just be confirmation bias, but I feel like they brakes work better than from before I started doing this...
