But yeah, you NEVER want to spray the side of the brake pad the touches the rotors!
Brake quiet is used to stop the squealing the occurs from the caliper to the BACK of the brake pad.

Get some brake cleaner to get the brake quiet off of the rotors, and sand your pads down.

I hope you have the rear caliper piston tool...

If it continues even after brake quiet has been appilied. The best solution is to locate the brake(s) that are causing the sound. Reassamble the pads rotor and caliper as you wou'd if you were changing them and inspect all the parts to make sure nothing is damaged. Sometimes reassembling the brakes is all that's needed. Also place a level on the disc. If it is warped in the middle a gap will be visible between the disc and the level. If the edges are warped the bubble will not read level and you will need a new disc. Do this for the pads as well.

how long ago? If it squeeked when you left horribly, you should of gone back. I would clean up all i did and take it back to them if its been less than a month.

If you got the money and cant take the noise, get new pads. EBC, hawk, or some PBR pads. All should be much quiter and stop better.
