All brakes turn kinetic energy into heat, but you should not touch disk brakes because the oil in your hands will degrade their performance
Remove the wheel, the calipers and the rotors, reverse procedure with new rotors.
New brakes do not grind. If you replaced the brake pads and resurfaced the rotors you may hear a bit of a sound but it is normal until the pads and rotors wear during normal driving.
Your rotors had the grooves before, from the old pads. You should have had them turned. Next time check rotors at time of fitting new pads. If you can see or feel grooves then they should be repaired.
About $120 for front and $40 to install

If you feel a pulsation on your brake pedal this most likely is the sign of warped rotors this happens when the brakes get to hot(the rotors will have a buish glassy look in certain spots). I suggest you bring it in to a mechanic to verify the problem. In most cases you can cut the rotors and the issue will be gone.
Your rotors are warped. You need new brake pads and the rotors turned at a machine shop or replaced.

Were the rotors resurfaced or replaced, or just the pads? Warped rotors are the most common cause of vibration when braking
If you only did the front brakes, the problem may be in the rear brakes.
You can tell if a Lincoln needs a new rotors by the braking fashion of the car. When applying the foot to the brakes, if the pedal tends to vibrate, the rotors could be deteriorating.
