I wouldn't worry too much about the rotors as if you bed pads, that will clean off just about anything on the rotors.

I still say, try a different set of pads, even if they are old used ones
I’d love to, Jay, but i don’t have another set, a new set is not in the budget and these pads have less than 5k on them.
I wish I’d saved the old pads...

Ill check and see if I have a set I can send you. I'm in the process of moving and I have packed most of my car parts.
Do you have an S or Base?

Another option is a set of Powerstop ceramics. They are pretty inexpensive and I have been running them for a while for my street pads and like them a lot
