No doubt they are talking Hawk Black/Blue. I have had it a little with the bagid blues too on my Elise.

My solution, wash your car after the event and swap your street pads back on and you'll be fine.

Back in the day, ArmorAll had a wheel cleaner that had some frikken awesome stuff in it but had since taken that ingredient out and it no longer works as good. The ingredient (the name slips my mind) is now only sold in... oven cleaner!

So you can try oven cleaner, I tried dousing my wheels with Brake Cleaner this weekend and it actually worked pretty good!

But yeah, they make your wheels ugly, and if you don't wash the car, they can make the car ugly too.

EDIT: I have even had yuck pad dust with Hawk HP+
