Lubrication for brake calipers
Brockett:
What's a good grease for brake caliper slide pins?
Rixington43:
Red rubber grease has always been my go to on brakes.
Safe on rubber parts, good temperature resistance, often supplied with caliper rebuild kits so I take their word for it.

I've got a silicone grease I use for slider pins inside boots like on the Gen 3. For metal on metal surfaces (for instance where the pads run) I use a high temp ceramic grease from Eurocarparts.
That K2 "Silicone" grease isn't listed as silicone anywhere else, the manufacturer doesn't even say silicone, just "synthetic", otherwise that seems like a decent buy.

I use this on sliders and pins, one sachet is enough for all three brakes.
