The problem is if you're going to go to the trouble of pulling the pads and reapplying the compound you might as well go ahead and replace the pads. I plan on doing this soon.
Do your rotors have a lip that sticks out on the outer edge? Where the pad doesn't wear down the rotor? Some say that can cause a squeak.
