[QUOTE=vansmac;16040739]Sure, simple answer. I warped my rotors, and boiled my brake fluid racing down Highway 9 in Northern CA.
Is that Highway 9 by Saratoga Gap, south of Cupertino?. If so, looks like a really nice road....Says the man who must drive the Long Island X-way every day.

Yes, I use it as a result of this list. I think it works well. Because my car is a DD with plenty of stop and go traffic, I still have to do a thorough wash and clean every two weeks with Outlast, and just a quick rinse in the alternating weeks (without applying more Outlast).
So yes, this has been a big improvement.

I only got my first Porsche (my 2019 991.2) in March of this year. After owning it for a few months, and after getting annoyed with how much care the wheels take, I turned to my 15 year old son and said:
"We need to find a chemist! I have an idea for an unmet customer need. We need to develop a product that you can spray on your wheels to keep brake dust from bonding with the metal. And we should create a long lasting version for the manufacturers that they can apply prior to shipping the cars to customers."
Of course, it might have been a bit naive to think the OEM's hadn't tried to solve this problem before - but you never know. Sometimes customer pain points go unaddressed for long periods of time.
Anyway, about 2 weeks later I found out about Outlast and have been using it ever since

Don't use it on Black wheels though since it leaves a faint milky look, but it does help repel brake dust so one may like that look better than the alternative.

I initially scoffed at the complaints about brake dust, but 10 months into ownership I have subscribed to the sick of brake dust club. Not quite at the PCCB upgrade stage but I plan to pop off the wheels soon and was thinking of applying a ceramic coating? Any recommendations on coatings that preserve the stock finish?
Thanks

Buncha these coated nitrile gloves:
3M Comfort Grip Nitrile Foam Work Gloves, Super Grip 200, General Use / for Safety, Texting, Smartphone -5 Pairs- (Medium)
I find them useful at the end of a car wash when I MF the schmutz from the wheel barrels. I have size M hands and the M is a good fit for me.

I have a 991.1 and the wing is shaped differently and they don't seem to make a mini-duck for us.
The closest is a stick-on lip that is not quite as nice, in my opinion.
