[TR] already turned rusty rotors?

[wbeech]

Your FLAPS should be able to put them on the lathe and check for runout,
then you will know if they need to be turned.  Light sanding will take care
of the rust.

Sorry if this is a repeat- as I've changed ISP's.

Hi!
I am now wondering about my front wheel rotors and my rear brake drums.  I
can't remember if I've 'turned' them already.  I kinda think I did this
about
4 years ago, but since they've been stored under a tarp, I can't really tell
since their rusty again.
    Although no distinquishing 'ruts' are on the rotors, I can feel where
tracks remain (maybe a 1/32" deep?)?
    I wonder if they need 'turning' again?  what about the rust?  Can I use
steel wool on it?

Thanks,
Paul Dorsey
