The present invention relates to a method for making a brake disc comprising the following operating steps: a) providing a brake disc, comprising a braking bandmade of aluminum or aluminum alloy and provided with two opposite braking surfaces, each of which at least partially defines one of the two main sides of the disc; b) depositing a material in particle form on the disc with HVOF (High Velocity Oxygen Fuel) technique or with HVAF (High Velocity Air Fuel) technique or with KM (Kinetic Metallization) technique, forming a protective coatingwhich covers at least one of the two braking surfaces of the braking band. The material in particle form is composed of 80 to 90% by weight of tungsten carbide, 8% to 12% by weight of cobalt and 2% to 6% by weight of chromium.
