Hey Simplyredvw,
So what's up on the moly-base grease vs silicone? Please educate me...Thanks,

Factory Honda brake pads come with Molykote. It can be found elsewhere. It is a moly based grease that takes better to the high temperature conditions of brake hardware because it tends to keep a thicker viscosity. You don't want any kind of grease that may thin when exposed to high heat and get on the braking surfaces.

If you are going to work with Molykote, wear gloves since it can be hard to wash off. With any type of grease applied, make sure it doesn't get on the pad material or rotor surface.
