Using a jet spray to clean brakes is NOT a good idea! Your problem may well be caused by the caliper not retracting properly, possibly due to water getting into the mechanism - subjecting it to a high presssure water jet could exacerbate the problem. You've got to do the job properly, which means removing the pads, cleaning everything thoroughly & lubricating the moving parts.
It may, of course, be a characteristic of the pads - don't assume that the manufacturer uses the best material for the job!
