my front brakes squeeked so toiok them off for a clean re copper grease but noticed on the rear of the pads the rubber type plastic coating had worn off so it was down to bare metal?
is there anythign i can use other than the short lasting copper grease or if needby what pads are decent to use that wont do this?

Re: brake pads backing coming off............
There is an anti squeal compound avail from motor factors etc. that can be applied directly to back of brake pads. You leave it for a while until it sets then reassemble. It worked for quite a while on mine but it will still wear through eventually.

This stuff is more like a rubber. You apply it and wait for it to go hard. Red colour if that helps but can't remember the name! Doh!
