Options for pad pads

posted by  someone claiming to be ibs740 on  Sat Jul 2 19:26 CST 2022 [RELATED]

2004, V70, 2.4 NA, 5sp. I have 2 identical.
The problem I have is brake rotors don't really last more than 6 months before
looking like something pulled off the bottom of a lake.
I use corrosion coated rotors and OEM Pagid semi metallic pads. ATE calipers all round.

This happens because the cars are not driven daily and parked outside so any rain/snow etc creates rust spots on the brake surface and it just worsens.

Is there a more aggressive pad that will scrub the rotors "more" than the current semi-metallic pads?

I realize that the rotors won't last as long but the surface is shite after 6 months now so anything more is an improvement.

thanks in advance
