yup sounds like ya glazed your brakes.This is a pretty easy fix. Pull the tires,pull the calipers and then take some 80 grit emery cloth and sand the rotors criss crossing the sanding marks.also just make a couple quick swipes on the pads to knock the shineyness off of them.re install everything and you should be good to go.
