Blue Goo for Brakes

I bought some blue goo for my new front brake pads and put it on yesterday. I just put it on the back of the pad between the pad and the shim. Should I have also put it between the shims? I know that I don't need to put it between the pad and the rotor. Also, be careful not to get that stuff on your rims when you start going. I did and it is a ***** to get off!

2 sets of brake pads ago I didn't put any anti-squeal between the shims itself and my pads did not emit any squeals. I wouldn't worry about it.

Tried that stuff before. I got some on my fron rims and it took a while to get it off. Not to mention it was a ***** to gett off. It didn't work though. Check and see if the metal pan behind the disc is rubbing. I used a flat head and pushed it back a little. The squealing went away.
