Default Old ceramic pads with turned rotors?

I was wondering if i need to re-do the bed in procedure to my old hawk ceramic pads after i get my rotors resurfaced? Pads are fine just the rotors are a little warped. Rotors are drilled and slotted for what its worth

the bed in procedure is preformed to transfer pad material onto the fresh rotor and to put the rotors through a complete heat cycle. I would say that yes, you should do the procedure with turned rotors... not to heat cycle them but to transfer the pad material propery. Not positive there but if it was me .. I would.
