It is extremely adherent and resistant to road salt and splash water. This paste prevents and eliminates squealing noises that occur between brake caliper pistons or contact points and the brake lining. It secures the function of the entire brake system and prevents seizing or rust freezing of the rims on the wheel hub. The operating temperature range is –40 °C to +1,200 °C. It is suitable for the entire brake system at disk brake pads, studs, pins as well as contact points for drum brakes. It also serves as a separating paste for centering rings on aluminum rims, connection points between rims and wheel hubs, and other plugged and screwed connections. Key features include outstanding adherence, elimination of squeaks, extremely low friction, good corrosion protection, outstanding thermal stability, ease of use, and resistance to road salt and splash water. To apply, clean all sliding surfaces, channels, and contact surfaces with a brush or brake file. Then, clean the brake components with Rapid Cleaner (Part no. 3318). After the solvent has evaporated, apply the paste to the cleaned parts on all sliding surfaces, channels, and contact surfaces. Do not apply paste to the friction surface of the lining or the brake disk.
This guide is for anyone looking to eliminate brake squeal and maintain optimal brake system performance using Liqui Moly Brake Anti-Squeal Paste. The paste provides excellent adherence and corrosion protection, preventing annoying noises and ensuring the smooth operation of your brakes. However, it's crucial to follow the application instructions precisely to avoid any issues.

FAQs
Where can I apply Liqui Moly Brake Anti-Squeal Paste?
Apply the paste to all sliding surfaces, channels, and contact surfaces of brake components. This includes the back of brake pads, caliper contact points, and any areas where metal-to-metal contact occurs.
What should I clean the brake components with before applying the paste?
Use a brush or brake file to clean the components, followed by Liqui Moly Rapid Cleaner (Part no. 3318) to remove any residue.
Can I use this paste on drum brakes?
Yes, Liqui Moly Brake Anti-Squeal Paste is suitable for use on the contact points of drum brakes.
Is this paste resistant to high temperatures?
Yes, the paste has an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +1,200 °C, providing outstanding thermal stability.
How often should I reapply the paste?
Reapplication frequency depends on driving conditions and usage. Check the brakes during regular service intervals and reapply as needed.
What happens if I apply the paste to the brake disc or the friction surface of the brake pads?
Applying the paste to the friction surfaces will reduce braking effectiveness and should be avoided. If this occurs, clean the affected parts thoroughly and reassemble correctly.
Can this paste prevent rust on my brake components?
Yes, the paste offers good corrosion protection, helping to prevent rust and maintain the integrity of your brake components.
Troubleshooting
Brakes still squealing after application.
Ensure all contact surfaces were thoroughly cleaned before application. Reapply to the affected areas if necessary. Check that the paste wasn't applied to the friction surface.
Brakes feel less effective after application.
Check if the paste was accidentally applied to the brake pad friction surface or the brake disc. Clean the affected areas and reassemble the brakes correctly.
