    Most TH-camrs would have taken 12 minutes to convey this same amount of information. Nice work.

    As a shop owner I can confirm that silicone grease can in fact be used for brake applications and is highly recommended

    The biggest negative of lithium grease is the bottle burst and it's all over my pants. It's not coming out and it looks... It looks bad

    It’s odd that silicone grease is not useful for high stress and temp applications because silicone is known for its extreme resistance to high temperatures. In fact, I use it for this purpose on a daily basis. There are a wide variety of silicone greases w/ various additives and many of them keep a high viscosity well into the 500°F range.

    Grease on brakes doesn't sound like a wise method to go; that is, for those who don't have a clue what this application you often refer to! I'm just sayin.. do you follow?

    Wasted hours on 11 min videos that over complicate the answer. You sir got it in a couple minutes, well done.

    You can use silicone grease on the brake system. My TSX OEM manual states to use silicone grease on the square cut seal inside the caliper piston bore and its also common to use this in the guide pins on the caliper mounting bracket.
