[Mk2] [Turbo] What sort of gease for brake caliper slide pins?

Post by DNOS808 »

Hi

Is there any such thing a brake caliper slider pin grease that is silicone free? I was just going to use moly grease but I am told that the mineral oil in the grease may rot the rubber boots. I dont like silicone because of the effects on spray painting- it gets everywhere.

Was watching Wheeler Dealers again recently, the one with the Lancia Delta Integrale, and Ed used copper grease on the sliders :thumbdown:
