Squeaking Brakes

I own a 2011 Camaro SS that still has the stock breaks, break pads, rotors and everything. Recently, after getting my car back from the body shop (my friend hit me) the breaks all started squeaking every time I stop. I took my car to a mechanic and they cleaned all the rust and said that their was simply no explanation for them to squeak still other than they were breaks. (Another break and exhaust specialist said the same thing)

However, over the weekend I was giving my car a carwash to take it out after the snowstorm we had and sprayed the wheels with cleaner, and some accidentally got on the rotors and for 15-20 minutes after driving they didn't squeak. I assume it is because the breaks were wet.
(Side note- My break pads have 45% life still)

Has anyone had this problem, and if so how do you fix it?
Can the problem be something with the break fluid & how its transferred?
Help!
