STW Massiv,
I have some superstar pads that are fairly explicit about 20 big stoppies until the pads are hot then sizzle with water. Fair enough I say.
But...how about I use my plumbing soldering gas heater to heat the pads until pretty hot then drench with water?
All the stoppies are doing is generating heat (the friction isn't changing the moleculer structure) so my quick and easy alternative should, theoretically, do the job non?
Thoughts appreciated.
Cheers
James
Ride your bike?
Part of the process involves transfering pad material too rotor, so no is your answer i guess
Stop thinking and start riding. 🙄
just go ride the bike, in my experience i only needed 10-15 max before they reached the right temp and were stopping hard
my question is ....
did neil/superstar do a risk assesment before he wrote that on his pad boxes 😉
i just ride - surprisingly the only pads that have failed using this method have been his ...
Another one here that just rides, I used to bed them in but gave up after realising it made no discernible difference to mere mortals
I can live with the first few applications not being 100%
