CRV brakes - pafosman

Afternoon all!

I am running a Honda CRV (auto petrol) out here in Cyprus. It suffers with persistant squealing from the front brake disks. I appreciate that the conditions out here are ideal for this to occur however I have had the disks hosed out and blown out regularly but with no improvement. Any ideas anyone? I seem to remember in the 'old days' we used to smear the pads and shims with a grease, is this not done anymore and why?

Thanks

Pafos man
