Similar test on my 2004 CTS-V showed the same results as yours. I found it did help slightly but not any better than a good wax. Otherwise as stated its not worth the cash.

Most CTS-V guys are running Hawk HPS pads to reduce some of the brake dust over stock. Slightly better stopping power as well.

OTC= DO NOT BUY. A product made for the masses will never have the costly make up of a high end product.

In the end it is like anything, more effort will produce better results(dis-mount wheel/polish/seal with high end sealant such as Powerlock or blackfire) Rejex repels really well, but the optics are just not there especially if you have gloss black wheels.

Evil Z06 is an unknown quantity at this point
I tried this product a couple of days ago and I am very impressed with it....As most know with the Z06 after 20 minutes the wheels are covered in brake dust......So far mine are 95% dust free after 3 days.

Hawk HPS brake pads are the key against dust.
