There were brake dust shields for earlier models but I don't know if they are available for XKs. I also wondered if they created problems with cooling air flow to the brakes.
I suspect a pad that deposited significantly less dust on the wheels would have to be harder and more susceptible to squealing.

Has anyone found a good 'cure' for the huge amount of brake dust that accumulates on the wheels ? - I heard somewhere that there is a new 'pad' - which solves the problem
