Shamal Mille noise

I had a noise problem with Shamal Mille rims and Campy brake pads. I discovered that when used a lot in very dry conditions, these rims attracted brake dust and micro road grime in the grooves of the rims, thus creating the noise. No matter if the pads were correctly aligned.

The only thing that was able to quiet the noise was when I applied the Pedro's Frame Polish to the rims to clean them. This is the white liquid sold in squirt bottles that looks like milk. On the Shamal rims, this stuff dried quick, left no bad residue and didn't affect the braking performance.
