You could always whip the pads out and if glazed run over them with a dreadnought file - something I often do to the rear handbrake shoes.

If still squealing then a trick I learnt long ago was to cut a groove with a hacksaw in the brake material, you perhaps have seen some brake pads are made like this. It prevented squealing on my old Saabs. At your own risk of course.

Good luck
