(And for those for whom the above ‘X’ is new information: I’m not making this up. Peer-reviewed and replicated research has been conducted as far back as the 1960s. And there are PLENTY of examples lying around today for those that pay attention.)

In our experience, the primary way to eliminate pad squeal is to maintain a pad transfer layer on your discs. As the pad transfer layer wears off, the pads tend to make more noise. When you lay down a fresh transfer layer, the squeal tends to go away. We made some videos years ago that are related to this topic:
