Name calling is not welcome in this forum. What separates this forum from many others is the sense of community, and this definitely is not representative of that community spirit.

Yes you can transfer material to your rotors, but the initial break in where the original bonds and moulds are broken can only be done once. The first time it is installed. I learned that from some guys that were on an indycar team. I have 3 set of used carbotech pads in my garage now, I can tell you one set doesn't perform as good as the other two because I didn't bed them in properly.

If you can afford it, just buy new.

I hit 29K miles, I just changed my front rotors last week. I think I used that with 6 or 7 set of pads, too many to count.

Or just switch to Carbon Lorraine pads. They basically eliminate all the break-in and maintenance mess. You just throw them on the car and drive and stop worrying about things, and it works :) They last a pretty damn long time, too.
