You don't wanna do 40-0, do 60-20. More force and you really don't wanna come to a complete stop with hot brakes. The carbotech rep said to do 60-20 and get back up to 60 about as fast as you can and then slam back down to 20 5 times in a row, wait a minute or two, and then do it again.

And no, you can't bed brakes in a parking lot. Best place is a track, but a good open road will do.
