Would you normally use shims/paste with a track pad?
(I'm asking because I had some Endless MX72 pads fitted to my M4 and after multiple attempts to re-bed, they still squeal like a stuck pig when coming to a standstill with warm brakes - wondering whether it's worth taking them out and re-fitting with extra anti-squeal)

I considered swapping the plates but I think after 1/2second I stopped. If I recall the plates are stuck on with adhesive .. I didn't want to risk damaging them. I could be wrong as this was a while ago that I did this. I just use a fair amount of antisqueal lately. once the rs29 pads were bedded they made much less noise. not sure if the compound has much to do with the dump-truck squeal, that's probably more from pad on rotor and I think properly bedding would do the trick. I'm not positive though, sorry!
