    Default Looking For Info On Carbon/Carbon Brakes

    We are thinking about installing Carbon/Carbon brakes on a prototype car and are hoping the APEX 'family' might be willing to share their experiences/knowledge thereof.

    - Is there any inhalation hazard with the Carbon/Carbon dust (above and beyond what we already have to deal with...)?

    - What should be used to clean the brake disc and pads?

    - Any other suggestions or comments that would be helpful?

    Thank you in advance.

    -Jim
