Bedding Brakes

What bedding the brakes does is to transfer a microscopic layer of brake material from the pad/shoe to the disc/drum surface. This is accomplished by “repeatedly” heating the brakes and letting them cool in a prescribed method as directed by the manufacturer. Greater friction is generated from brake material to brake material than from brake material to cast iron.
If you believe that you are more knowledgeable than the manufacturer, good luck.
It’s always done on race cars as braking is somewhat an important thing.
