[W126 Coupe] Brakes Still Squealing

[Shayegan, Richard]

Did you put shims on the back of the rear pads? Did you remember to put anti-squeal paste on the back and sides (sides of the backing that is, not sides of what actually touches the rotor) of the pads?
Did you bed the pads in (take it up to like 60, slow down firmly to 30 and keep going until you start to feel some brake fading, then coast around without using the brakes to let them cool off.

If you have had numerous issues with brake squeal please take a look:
 
 
I replaced my Pads and Rotors on all four wheels......squeals worse than before....is there something the mechanic should  be checking  anyone?
