CTS Brakes dust

Re: CTS Brake dust
I recently purchased a 2010 CTS Sportwagon. What a wonderful vehicle, only ruined by the horrible front wheel brake dust. What a shame. I have had a lot of cars in my 60 years and none, (barring my daughter's Dodge Caravan) have ever produced brake dust like this CTS. Is anyone else annoyed by this issue? Has anyone found the solution to either eliminating, or "easy" cleaning (my finger is wearing out).

Don't know how many miles you have but with some cars until the pads seat themselves they will dust more than normal, this can also happen if the rotors have a rough finish on them, but it should stop after 1k miles or so, I know I have several Escalade's and there is almost no dust from the pads, besides that just keep your wheels "waxed" and cleanup will be much easier
