Should you put grease on brake pads?
Use special grease for ceramic brake pad assemblies But they don't dissipate heat as well, and that high heat can degrade the grease in caliper and pad slides. So it's critical that you use synthetic high-temp brake pad grease to lubricate the caliper pins, pad abutments and pad slide hardware.
What happens if you put grease on brake pads?
Because it's so important, here's that reminder again: Don't ever put lubricant on the rotors or the insides of the pads where they contact the rotors. This will kill your brakes and cause you major problems on the road. Lubricate the few small screws on top and bottom of the caliper that hold it in place.
