What to clean with Brake Cleaner, and what to Grease?

Hi. I'm trying to get the brakes on my 2018 Honda CRV to stop squeaking. There is plenty of pad left, but seem to have more brake dust than any other of my cars. What all parts can/should be cleaned with Brake Cleaner? And what can/should be greased with Brake/Caliper grease? Any other suggestions beyond cleaning and greasing? Thanks!
