Glazed Rotors

[Rev. That Guy]

a quick way that I learned how to do this and it is effective, although you can only get the outsides this way, is to get some 220 grit on a DA (orbital sander). Spin the tire as fast as you can while VERY GENTLY holding the DA to the rotor. This will take down that top layer VERY QUICK.

Also dont forget to scotch brite your pads too. Do this by hand and only take a few minutes.

you can usually scotch brite the rotors by hand to remove the glaze, just depends on how impatient you are. Most of the glaze on the rotors is actually brake pad amterial that has burned/built up on the rotor and is relatively easy to remove. Use brake clean as you go along as well to break up the deposits and remove any sanded away material.
