Mintex 1144 pads squeal.

Just fitted some 1144 pads to my Wilwoods.
After a few miles and only at about 10mph to 0 mph they squeal like a good un.
I have taken them out again and put a chamfer on the leading edges and a smear of copper grease on the back of them and they are still sound like a Banshee. Again only really from 10mph to a stop.

Any other fixes please anyone?
Cheers.
Steve.

Blue goo by Bendix- not easy to find but solved a chronic problem on my Alfa 166 - I never needed to ring a door bell as friends knew I was arriving! Plus new pads and discs of course.
