Default BRAKES Burnish-Turn Rotors or NOT?

OK AFTER searching Here, and EPhatch, and Google...

my new Hawk Ceramics just arrived in time for the snow tires to go on together...
------------------------------------------------------------
i searched and asked this same question a few weeks ago on ephatch- no replies...

i saw a lot of "Don't turn your rotors, they wear out faster"

and i'm supposed to "Burnish the ceramics into the rotors first!" according to Hawk
-----------------------------------------------------

ok, if they are not that worn, And i keep the stock rotors (52,000 miles)

1. should i try to burnish the new pads into them without having them turned?

or,
2. should i turn them just to be sure i can burnish the ceramics the RIGHT way!?

I've never burnished a set before- Hawk says to do it! what do you think?
