Oil or grease to stop brake pad squeak?

[autozen]

Hi Newbie here. I'm tired of hearing the ear piercing squeal from the front brakes on my Benz and I plan to grease the pads this weekend. I've talked to number of mechanics and some say soak them in oil and others say to just use regular grease on the braking surface. Anyone tried either way, and what were the results?

Thanks
