Rear Brakes Sound Like Metal to Metal But Have Plenty of Material

Recently finally found a non-rusty 1993 Geo Metro XFI. New to Forum.

First order of business. Address rear brakes.

Plenty of brake material. Fairly deep scoring.

Why such a metal-to-metal scraping sound when operated?

Hard to tell from pics. If you have metal to metal rubbing then there should be evident shiny marks.........

Looks like you glazed your drums from leaving the e brake on or not adjusted right. I would take 1500 grit paper and buff the glaze off then clean with brake cleaner.

sometimes if you use the ceramic type ive had them make this noise, im not sure why but they do, i guess there harder material or something, changed them out to the other bio degradable ones and they were quiet.
