Brake-in
This is a mild abrasive red coloured coating applied to the surface of the pads. It helps reduce bed-in time significantly and lightly scrubs the brake disc after new pad installation. THE BIG REASON why we use this at EBC on our pads is because our discs are zinc coated. Brake-InTM coating removes the zinc in a few miles allowing optimum braking to be achieved faster.
