Default Squeaking rear brake pads

I replaced the rear pads and discs yesterday and this morning all was fine driving to work.Later on on the way home the dreaded brake squeal started.I did use the lube that come with the pads and coated them well.There not expensive pads only cost a tenner.Any tips on how to get rid of the squeal
