He says he applied brake clean and no change. I just did a search and found quite a few complaints about their e line rotors. Geomet apparently are far superior. One thing I noticed with the e line is the rotor pad radial depth is longer than the actual pad radial depth which leaves what appears to be an unswept area of the rotor. For the e line this starts to rust immediately and continues to rust because the pad is not deep enough to reach the rotor IR. Geomet rotors have a double step from the mounting hat to the rotor surface and, therefore, the pad and rotor radial depths are the same so no rusty unswept area around the rotor IR.
