New rotor / pads fitted and bedded in on Sunday. Squealed on Monday in the rain - stupidly loud.
Stripped everything off yesterday, cleaned, refitted, torqued on and lined up.
Possibly what Amey said - although how it ends up on the rotor I don't know. Possible that you wrecked your calliper and its leaking fluid. It only takes a tiny amount to escape and ruin a set of pads.
In the wet, most brakes are noisey, it’s the water vibrating between/around the pad and rotor
My brakes aren't screeching, bitches!

Still howling. Video with sound...not sure it does the loudness justice.
Could it be that RT-800 Ultegra rotors don't like SRAM (would seem odd) OR perhaps there is a constant stream of sh*t coming off the mudguards OR something else?!
Here is the state of the rotor after a few wet miles.
