What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing smooths the rotor surface to restore flatness and eliminate light grooves; replacement installs a new rotor when resurfacing would make the rotor thinner than safe limits.
• For a 2017 Mercedes-Benz SLC-Class, resurfacing may be cost-effective when rotors are within thickness specs; replacement is required if warped, cracked, or below minimum thickness.
• At Mercedes-Benz of Draper we measure rotor thickness, explain immediate vs. long-term costs, and recommend OEM replacements when needed to preserve performance and safety.
