glazing is cause from brake rotors and bads getting to hot and causing the material to harden and to make noise and also and squeel a little..

to fix: replace pads cut rotors or replace rotors stock oem parts!!!

i heard slotted rotors prevent this because it act like a blade that scrapes the glaze off the pads, could just be made up though.

that sounds plausable, i havnt check my pads if it was glazed, just y rotor, when you look at it, its dark and shiny, and feels real smooth to the touch. once i can get my hands on a hydrolic lift to lift it off that ground, then i'l work on it.

yeah, the new set off rotors i'm gann buy when these crap out would either be slotted or drilled
