You want to keep using them while they're cold. The track pad (if its truly an aggressive track pad) will cut everything off the rotors, then you can try re bedding them. I know people that keep a set of track pads around specifically to cut deposits and such off their rotors.
That's correct, these went on after I ran through the set from the factory.

It has been rainy here, so I haven't been driving it, but I kind of have the same feeling that over time with normal driving it will probably subside.

I also didn't have any of the pad grease to use when I put them on, I have since bought some and will put that on the back of the pads and all the hardware as well. Although I don't think that is the cause. But who knows, I had the rear replacement pads in for a week with the grease and they made no noise, but they're also a solid rotor.
