Brake Bleeding Order and Caliper Pin Grease?
Hi Everyone,
I am going to be doing pads, rotors, SS lines and a fluid flush this weekend. I picked up slotted rotors and pads from Excelerate and SS lines. What is a recommended silicone grease to be used on the caliper pins?
I have 3 Qts of Honda brake fluid, some Mollykote 77, and a power bleeder. Besides the usual shop supplies and the silicone grease am I missing anything? I had a part number for Honda grease, but the local dealer did not stock it and they wanted over $60.00 to special order it. When I asked what they use for caliper pins, they said "wheel bearing grease".

I picked up some SIL-GLYDE. I also read 3M silicone paste was what was used by Honda. I can grab a can from Amazon in a pinch if SIL-Glyde is an issue.
EDIT: Here is the link to the Honda recommended materials:

Looks like "08C30-B0224M" Honda Caliper Grease is recommended. Anyone comment as to who makes this? Dealer wanted close to $60 for this stuff!
