Cross drilled / slotted rotors clogged holes?
Hi Everyone.
I've had a Rotora BBK for some time now with x-drilled/slotted rotors. I've been noticing some harsh vibration when braking lately and it looks like I am getting a lot of brake dust clogging the holes. I am running rotora pads (street).
My question is three fold: 1) How do I fix? 2) Has anyone else experienced this 3) Is this normal? Operator error? Or a sign of a bigger problem?
Thanks.
Other Info: I contacted Rotora and they told me that I could resurface the rotors just like any other rotor. After doing some reading, this is my last resort. I have a extra set of rotors that I may experiment with.

if that is 1 piece kit, rotora stopped making those rotors. If you want to still use after those rotors are worn out then you have to send your calipers in for s swap and send them $850 and they will give you a 2 piece kit.
As far as cleaning Im not sure. I wonder if the vibration is from the clogs or from warped rotors.
