    You should have carefully sand the surface of the disk brake to reduce scratches caused by worn brake pads

      If there is no visible shielding, then scratches will not interfere, if there is, then you need to replace the brake disc

    Great attention to detail, did you measure the thickness of the disc? The bike was probably taken out the shop and just ridden until something went wrong and this was the first bit of any maintenance.

      I was on a tight budget, and the brake disk is not a replacement. one more set of brake pads, this brake disk can work.

      Oh that disk is done. Penny wise pound foolish. The one pad is going to wear out much faster this time. A new disk isn't a very expensive additional cost. Having the budget a total fluid replacement is also a good idea at this time. Sometimes the funds aren't available and you do as little as possible. But your intuition is on target the surface with the worn out pad is abrasive now and the future of the new pad is not good. This could have been detected before the awful grinding noise started. Rhis was gars on rhw piston and seal being overextended. A ceramic piston in more expensive brakes might crack. The seal may start to leak as it certainly is subject to a smaller less supported seal surface.
      . Regular cleaning and inspection is always a good thing. A clean bike is a happy bike. Things will last longer. Just don't use a high pressure power washer. Best by hand with dish soap and rags . Give it a shot of furniture polish at the end , let sit a few minutes and wipe down. Hit the braking surface with a good brake cleaner or alcohol. Wipe with a clean rag until no visible grim is left on the new clean spot of the rag. The disk or rim will be happy.

      ​@@GoodBicycleAll we can do is best inform the costumer. In the end it's the costumers decision.This would be one who can't always find a shift in one's budget to do so. This also would be one of those times I may have gone to our collection of used rotors and found one in a little better shape. That also takes space in a shop , so not always possible either. Fortunately the space and supply of usable parts was good. Mostly for the large number of used bikes we processd each and a large number costumer take offs that were left for us to recycle and we did as much as possible.

    There's still some life left in those pads , why did you change them ? 😢

    • @GoodBicycle

      when the pad is worn and the metal of the pad starts to wear off, that's 120% wear.
