Use specific brake lube! That stuff you have will destroy the rubber boots surrounding the slide bolts. Ceramic brake lubricant by permatex is one of the better ones. Silicone based brake lubricants, or synthetic brake lubes are excellent too. Don't use petroleum based lubricants on anything that may contact rubber.

Re: JK breaks! HELP!
The EP Lucas grease you bought is petroleum based, non synthetic wheel bearing grease. It's not a brake lubricant. Trust me on this, go buy the right stuff.

Permatex Caliper Lube, 80-mL | Canadian Tire Permatex Ultra Slick Multi-Purpose Synthetic Grease, 85 g | Canadian Tire It's a multi purpose grease, not sure if thats good enough. I'll probably go back on Thursday or so, but it was a rough isle to look through. They arn't exactly the most organized people around. My biggest concern is the temperature, I am not entirely sure what kind of temperatures I am dealing with when it comes to brake parts. The permatex site says the multi purpose grease "grease withstands temperatures from -45F to 350F (-42C to 177C), 450F (232C) intermittent" |

That's not it. I've attached a pic of the product I use. It's available at any auto parts store, but maybe not CT. Notice the temp range. Whatever you get, make sure to get a specific brake lube.

The one that I use from Canadian tire is the black and green coloured tube in the above picture.
