Default Squeaky Front Brakes

It seems I'm having a problem w/ squeaky front brakes on my 91.

I had a worse problem w/ squeaky brakes on my 97... I solved that by buying expensive brakes and rotors. I don't really want to buy new ones for the 91, since they are new as of last year.

Any cleaners or tips for getting rid of a few little squeaks when stopping slowly?

i know autozone has some stuff you spread on the brake pads and it eliminates squeaking. not for sure what it is called though.

If it'* from vibration, what you need is "Brake Snot", also called anti-sqeal. This is the stuff I got a Pep Boys for about 5 bucks --- http://www.easyautopart.com/CRC_Disc...uiet_4_oz.html
