Time to get the pads and rotors ready. For the pads, remove the backing plates (make sure you remember the order they came off) from your old pads and clean them with a rag. If they were greased the previous time, the dirt should just wipe off. Then put a thin layer of the brake quite grease on each surface and put them on your new pads. There should be enough grease that they stick together but not so much that it's oozing out everywhere. They're ready to go. Give your new rotors a once over. I didn't like how the paint had the bumpy surface so I block sanded them off prior to installation.
