Wait rotors or pads? I used 1000 on the pads.

1000 is not aggressive enough.
he said rotors because the contaminated pads could have glazed the rotors, sanding them takes them back to a virgin surface. with cleaned or new pads you can bed them in and they should be good as new. i found when trying to burn oil out of a pad you need to get them HOT with a torch, a cigarette lighter wont do. a butane lighter will work eventually but i use a propane torch like youd use to solder pipes, i get them to the point where you can literally smell the pads burning. i dont think there is a point where they can get too hot they always come back to quiet.
He needs to wait until he has a tire to heat also ??

That's gonna stink the kitchen, then wifey pooh will be on to his shenanigans
I guess @rick81721 can comment how it smelled the last time
These guys are well on their way to convincing him to set the old one on fire. So you may be on to something here.

WD-40 on the pads, that will stop the squealing...
