Default Front wheel making noise when braking

I drive a 2000 accord lx. I recently just got my wheel bearing on both of the front wheels changed. after i got my car back i started hearing this squealing noise when i brake. I thought maybe Honda forgot to put the anti squeal grease on the brake after they took my wheel assembly apart, so I went out and bought the anti squeal grease and applied them on the back of the brake pads and also the shims. however, the problem didnt seem to go away...my brake pads are brand new. just changed it this summer. I didnt apply the grease on the part where the shim touches the calibers...is that why? please help!! Thanks in advance.

That could be why.....give that a try. Do it on both the inner pad and outer.

Someone told me that my rotor can have crystalization on it? what are the possibility of that on a brand new pair of Wagner Rotors?

Might be good for a laugh.

um... NO. Or, well, yes; kinda. All metal is a crystalline structure, unless it's molten.
