Did you take a pin and get the old pads/gunk out?  
after you put the pads in did you push it down with a pencil or something?

Try using rubbing alcohol or soap/water to remove any oil/residue that may keep the new pads from sticking as well.  
Make sure the surface is completely dry before applying new pads.  
If you use a stronger glue, you may not be able to remove and replace the pads.
