Hello, what is the best brake squeaking paste you guys use?
Im having loud high pich squeaking when i press brakes hard(all the way down).
When i press beakes just a little bit doesn't make any noise.
I changed the pads and discs and noise is still there.
I don't want take car to the garage as they might change parts unnecessary..
Is really a loud squak and embarrassing, I'm thinking of getting rid of the car

Did you thoroughly clean everything, lube guide pins etc? I just use cheap ceramic paste from Amazon (silver something) for the pads, very quiet.
 
Small amount of copper paste on the pad back and where the pads contact the caliper metal is what I normally do .
 
You will get lots of opinions.

For me and against what some may say i use Cooper Grease on the back and ear of the pads. Not on the slider pins however.
 
This is the MB brake grease that I have used for over 20 years:
Brake pad paste pot A0019894751
This small pot of it cost me £9 and will last me for ever.
[Not that I have for ever left in me]
You only need the smallest amount.
 
Personally I use Castrol red rubber grease on the sliding pins and Mintex Ceretec on the areas of the caliper housing where the pads slide.
 
You need to use a ceramic grease . Because this wont effect the abs system or sensors
I’ve always used a very small amount of copper grease on the back and tabs of the pads, tiny bit on the pins.
Why should that effect the abs sensors ?

I bought some cheap pads a long time ago for my BMW from Euro Car parts, changed them soon after for decent quality because of the terrible squealing.
 
Mintex Ceratec.
 
I also use copper grease.
