Best discs for a Super H

I am going to replace all 4 brake disc on my Farmall H. I have heard that one of the disc is better than the other. (some are red and some are gray. Do you guys have any ideas on this? Sounds kinda strange to me. Ideas?
 
Have tired 3 or so different brands / makes over the years all seem to work the same for me, poor to fair...

I put brakes on my Super H about a year ago. I got them from Tribco. If I remember correctly they are made from Kylar. When you use the brakes they will stop. The biggest thing to remember is to get the mechanism to work correctly first. An check the clearance an cut down the housing if needed.
 
I stick those things in a vise or something that will hold them solid and scrape them with the edge of a flat file to break the "slick" part up and get them fuzzy again. I then douse them good with brake cleaner and blow them off with air. I do this several times and over the course of 2 or 3 days. It may not save a lot of $ and the discs might not last as long as brand new ones but I always got some enjoyment in making stuff last longer if I could and that's a big part of why I fool around with old iron in the first place. gm
