Well, I'm sure you guys know all about Pam... but I'd be very surprised if the
tiny quantity on a brake rotor that would touch a pad would destroy or degrade
the pads stopping qualities. After all, the pads are rubbing the rotors all
the time and most of any Pam sprayed on the rotors would be wiped off by the
pad edges, right? I'd betcha a couple of stops would be plenty to eliminate
any slip caused by the Pam.

OTOH, I've never tried it nor seen it tried.... was just an idea.

Some of the newer pad compounds are sensitive to certain organic and
chemical compounds. "Pam" might be one of them, although I sort of
agree with you on the amount.

Hey, who knows - try it and see I guess.
