The rotor with grease will not grab hard causing the other brake to grab. Easy way to fix is remove the offending brake pad(s) celean with brake cleaner as stated then re-rough up the pad by rubbing it back and forth on asphalt or concrete just to rough it up a little. A racers trick when he has to change pads a the track or take some 80 grit paper and rough up the pad. OR just replace the pads in a pair and clean the rotor. Nothing trhat hasn't been done hundreds of times before.
