EBC "greenstuff" pad troubles

Just put these pads on about a month ago and they squeak like hell.(usually only once there warm)

Anyone know why

I'm using crossdrilled rotors up front with the EBC's and stock discs with stock pads in in the back.

The pads really help stopping distance but i've gotta get rid of the squeaking. Its driving me f$*@#ing nuts.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

That's strange. I've heard that some aftermarket pads tend to squeak when they are cold, but that usually goes away once they are warm.

When you installed the brakes, did you use anti-squeal compound for the pads??

What's anti squeal compound??

Only compound I saw the mechanic use was to attach the pads to the calipers
