😮😮Paint from a new towball or rust from one that has been used for an old trailer will put a shine of deposits on the hitch pads, that causes it to squeal and affects the damper action. Also if you are not going to be caravaning for a while smear a thin film of vasailine on the shining ball and use a different protective cap. Remember to CLEAN the ball thoroughly before you hitch up again. Mark it so that you know which is which without sticking yours finger inside 😮. See internet on how to remove and clean the pads. Happy Days 😊

Hi mate. My new tow bar was painted but it squeaks so is that due to the paint or not?

It could be the paint yes (not definitely but it could). One way to find out is to take the paint off to see if the squeak goes away....However, the damper shoes may be contaminated so you may have to run some sandpaper over those too (do not breathe the dust, wet sandpaper should help)
