When changing your brake pads...
Do you put any sort of grease on the back of them? Some people swear by it and say it prevents the sqeeks. I just make sure that the brake pistons are really clean so they make good contact with the pads. Should I also be using ant-sqeek grease?

I always clean my caliper guide pins and re apply anti seize each time they are removed, and also I spray the back of the brake pads with that red brake quiet stuff, it defiently works !!!

Ive got a slight squeak on my passenger side rear brake... however Ive changed the brake pads since I bought the car but it squeaked even before then. Could this fix that squeak for me? I had never heard of this before.

I recently did the rear pads + machined rotor but did not grease the rear slidepins. To do so looked like it would require removing (not just swiveling) the caliper from the caliper bracket and that lower caliper bolt is REALLY hard to get to
When you say slidepins, these are "bolts" with the rubber "expanding" covers on them, right? Can these be greased w/o unbolting the entire caliper?
Now I'm paranod of seizing!
Thanks, Brian
