I know. I know. I didn't know that they were going to be this crappy though. at least we know now so that other people don't make my same mistake. Thank you for your help. I really wish I did go with the brembo blanks now too. would've saved me alot of money and I would've gotten alot better quality.

use 220 grit SILICON CARBIDE paper ONLY.

when you're done sanding wash them down with brake cleaner very very well. the pattern you sand in doesnt matter, but it wouldnt be a bad idea to sand all 4 rotor faces in the same manner so that all the pads (4 faces per pair of rotor, 2 faces on a rotor) of an axle (4 pads in an axle set) have the same rotor surface to bed into and all have the same bite.
i hate to say i told you so, but you should have just gotten the brembo blanks. hearing that they spray painted the rotors really makes me question the quality of the casting and how long they'll last without warping or cracking.
