Default OEM S2000 Brake question

My front brakes are squealing when I come to a stop.

I pulled the pads, cleaned them and put molykote on the backs of the shims.

Reassembled and the brakes are still squealing.

Not sure what to do now? Should I try using molykote on the fronts of the shims too?

umm maybe its just time to replace the pads

did you measure the pad to see if you're within operational specs?

you probably just glazed the pads. you can replace them or.. live with them for a while longer. keep the pads on hand if you go to the track and need a set of backups. the squealing doesn't matter there.

Pads still have 50% on them......

I'm gonna try some moly on the fronts of the shims.... if that doesn't work, then I'm gonna buy all new rotors and pads (excuse for me to upgrade to slotted rotors and probably porterfield pads)

Thanks guys.....
