do a quick 1/2 mile non eco drive with lots of pointless hard stops, will clean them right up. That's what I do on the Supra.
Spray some of that brake parts cleaner on there as well to get any gunk off that makes the mechanisms pull the pads away from the rotors so they don't rub. But yes, pointless hard stops. Maybe borrow some gas from a neighbor/room mate saying you need some?
