Great job, now comes the hard part, writing the "How to" for the forum.

The scuffing is just to break up the concentric lines on the flywheel and get rid of some of the glaze.

Rotors are ground these days, gone are the days when you purchased rotors and then had them turned before fitting them on the car. You have a hard time finding one of those lathes for rotors these days.
