You should also check that the plunger in the master cylinder is being pushed completely back out when you're off the brake. Even the slightest amount of pressure on the cylinder will cause the pads to ride on the rotor and overheat it.

The caliper slides back and forth on the mounting bolts...........remove them ,clean them ,and grease them..........then it will not bind and release easier
