did you wait 3-5 minutes?
also the red residue/color change is due to the chemicals reacting to the iron/metallic particles from brake dusts.
if you're not a person who hard brakes all the time/having performance brake pads or rotors, chances are you won't be getting much of those red/black ish color change.
Yeah, in fact, I think I waited for more than 5 minutes because I was waiting for the red "substance" to appear

Nothing has been changed to the brakes or tires since the day I took it out of the showroom and I'm not a person who brakes hard but the thing is, the last car wash I had was a week ago but the surprising thing is, I "was" expecting to see some "red" but nothing, I mean "nothing"

experienced some hazing/residue with BSD too.
from my observation:- surface have to be really clean.
- from the surface that i re-apply meguiar's ULW, the hazing is a lot less/easier to buff off
- surface that have dirt/spots that my washing missed will be a b**** to deal with
- when wiping/buffing off, apply light to no pressure so that you don't squeeze more BSD to the surface and you have to re-buff off again.
- as you apply BSD on the MF/surface, the cloth itself will begin to bead as the product sets in. consider multiple cloths when working with BSD to save time as the product will just bead itself off the cloth after long usage.
reminds me of meguiar's wheel brightener, very similar effect/strength and smell.
by "surface have to be really clean" meaning free from contaminants or just a normal car wash? I applied the BSD immediately the car wash and a proper wipe.
in respect of the application, I employed the mentality that my car paint was made from tofu :haha: I just very lightly spread the BSD and then buff it off softly. I initially though the hazing was due to the improper buffing and the BSD just stayed on.
I had two cloths though, one to spread and another to buff.
:hmmm:
