Default Hammering on Brake Roaters

I got some axles from they junk yard and the rotors were stuck on so I pounded them off with a standard hammer. I'm not sure If i should re-use them, or buy new ones. Whats the odds that I bent it?

Also, what are some places that "turn" rotors? Like midas or somewhere? Is standard for most tire shops?

orileys and napa around here both turn them and they should be able to tell you if the are straight or not. if you ever have to hammer on them again just make sure that you hit the inside of them like between the studs. that will help brake them loose and not hurt them.

Its almost cheaper just to buy news than have the old ones turned. and then you know they are good.
