and it should go without saying NOT on the rotor, and pad surface, but some people read these forums and don't get told where not to do something...

Between the pad and the rotor, most of it on the rotor

Smoke is normal.

edit: j/k don't put any on the pad just on the rotor.

double edit: it help the pads slide more quietly on the rotors, fyi.
