Bedding in Carbotech pads with Used Rotors

Easiest way to do it is run the pads on the street hard enough to scrape material, but not hard enough to get them hot enough for bedding to begin.

Basically do a hard stop, then drive normally for awhile until everything completely cools down and do another somewhat hard stop. This should scrape the old material off as Carbotechs are generally abrasive under "cold" usage.

Then you can go about bedding them in normally with multiple hard stops within short periods of time.
