    Check these out. I've never looked back. Auto zone and the likes use metal filler in the ceramics. Reason they never wear out and usually wreck the rotors. These are 100% ceramic, and drilled and slotted rotors for reasonable price. You can compare these to Raybestos. They are really that good.

    Find ur make, model and go from there. The ebay store is called Brake motive.

    But no....it's just bare metal. I spent a lot of time with a wire brush on my grinder and a couple flap disks. I'm going to be trussing this housing so I don't bend _another_ one. Stripping it down to bare metal is the easiest way.

    Hmmm....how do I explain this to your kind.....
    Perhaps this video of a guy with a Hawaiian shirt might better explain it.
