How careful do I need to be with disc cleaner? I'd added it to my bi-monthly deep-clean routine, where I will carefully treat the rotors after I have cleaned both wheels, removed from bike.
I don't have time to do this after every shower, but my brakes could literally wake the dead in anything beyond a light spitting.
I'm wondering how effective it's likely to be if I can just douse the rotors (and pads?) in situ, and give a vigorous scrub with a microfibre cloth?
For additional reference, this is with a TRP Spyre OEM set of calipers and rotors. I've replaced the pads that came with the set with a couple of different replacements and the current ones are basically silent in the dry, but much, much worse in the wet. It's literally given me a headache it's that bad.
