    Give a change of fluid a go. I use Castrol Response SUPER DOT 4, as opposed to normal Castrol Response. Easy way to tell, the SUPER DOT 4 comes in a silver coloured container ( and the fluid itself is clear), and normal Castrol Response comes in a red container, and the fluid is amber coloured.
    With new fluid, and properly bled, you should find a big improvement

    Yeah, If your not kidding about the wiping with tissues then go see someone soon! Be protective of your discs and pads, the discs get all nasty with crap on them and pads absorb oil and rubbish too.

    My brakes suck ass... thought I'd just share that...
    Lesson learnt: Don't replace your old master cylinder/reservoir with a crappy chinese brake master cylinder/reservoir.

    Just dirt and grit from the road comes off, but it definitely makes a difference
