I don't even think those discs are 18 months old tbh. Though one winter up here and the discs on my A6 look worse than those. Score lines like that are relatively normal. More important is a lack of discolouration sowing over heating discs. Plus if no feedback through pedal then discs should be good.

Copper slip can loose its softness quite quickly unlike silicon grease. However, in my experience any grease based product collects dust etc and this is deemed bad. I still use copper slip because it always works for me on vehicles doing 50k a year or just 1000 miles. But, I service my brakes at least once a year. Cleaning off old lube and reapplying the smallest amount each time. Best practice outways products used in my opinion.
