Definitely sand the braking surface down. You want rubber on aluminum for stopping power, not rubber on paint. Grab these pads. In the future, you can keep the cartridge and just replace the pad... it'll be even cheaper.
thanks for the advice. Ordered these form Amazon.ca which I think are the same as the linked nashbar ones. http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B004JKJKWG/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
