Kool Stop Continental Price Increase

FYI: The price increase on the Kool Stop Continental Salmon brake pads was more than the usual price increase. This was due to a cost analysis done by Kool Stop when they moved into their new facility last month. The Continental is their oldest production model. It is the only model made on their oldest machine. It is also one of their lowest volume models, so it is expensive to do a production run. Kool Stop considered discontinuing the Continental. Luckily, they decided on the price increase instead.
