I did my brakes last summer. As I was painting the calipers, everything was thoroughly cleaned. I bought the Porsche (Brembo) pads for the front, Textars for the rear, and Zimmerman coated non-drilled rotors. I also used the anti-squeal pads that Pelican sells and chamfered the leading edges of the pads.

No squeal, squeak, chatter... nothing. They are completely silent.

Perhaps if you removed the pads, cleaned everything, and installed the same anti-squeal pads, it would solve the problem. Be worth a shot anyway.
