<VV> mystery rear brake noise, need help

[Mark Durham]

Ramon, my car has made scraping noises from time to time and I have found
that there is no way for the brake shoe dust to exit the drum and it causes
the noise. I blow out all the dust and spray the drum surfaces with brake
cleaner and all is quiet for a time. Mark Durham
