Yep - do this. But caveat that auto brake cleaner should be used with care. I had to do this with a rotor that I accidentally got mineral oil on when changing it in my brakes. I tried cleaning the rotor with all kinds of cleaner, even alcohol as suggested further above. Nothing got it completely clean. So I took the rotor off the wheel, took it outside and put it on some clean cardboard, and used the Brakleen. I didn't want to get it on anything else.
