Does anyone out there in mechanic land know what is the proper grease or lube 
to use on a piston, when it is installed into a disc brake caliper . I am 
puting together one that has the parking brake built in and we play hell 
getting the piston to turn, trying to get it started on the threaded part of 
the park brake mechanism. The car is a 86 Acura Legend that belongs to my broke 
son (no $$$$$ to speak of)
Thanks in advance

PS I have heard of 3 things: silicone grease, petroleum grease and some "paste" 
designed for such applications?
