So i'm in the middle of stripping down a rear caliper to repaint and rebuild.
In the meantime i'm also going to regrease the sliders in the rest of the brake calipers to help them move around as there are a bit stiff.
Checking online tutorials etc they say to use grease type lube, and NOT to use copper anti seize for the sliders.
Checking with my local motor factors they say everyone uses copper grease.
I'm more inclined to believe what the internet says in this instance, as the sliders i've removed do not have copper grease in them, and i would say proper brake type grease would allow better movement? And copper grease tends to get a bit clumpy/dry over time i've found.
What's the opinions on this?
I think I will buy the following to use for the slides?
