Squealing brakes - with a twist. 900 1993

The previous front brake setup was Axiss Organic on Zimmerman rotors.
Those pads are hard, very little pad wear!
OK, but not great braking. No squealing with synthetic grease on the pad backs.
I changed to Axiss Metal Masters, much better braking.
I put the red antisqueal stuff on the new pads before assembly.
The brakes do not squeal on straight line braking but only when turning left slowly.
I have tried to apply some synthetic grease to the pad backs with a Q-tip thru the wheel spokes.
This helped a bit but it looks like I will have to take the wheels off and do it properly.
Any suggestions as to curing this odd squeal?

Thanks again,

Dan
