Didn't do anything, they still squeal each time I brake.
I have 1 or 2 track days next week. If they still squeak after that, I'm removing them. Can't live daily with that noise. Maybe I'll try the ferodo 2500, or Hawk street-race.

Pad on top is after I grinded the chamfer, below is before (rear). Other picture is front. Rotor is front and rear I think.
Youre not getting your pads not enough to proper bed the pads themselves. Close, but not quite there. Get them hotter next time you're on track.
