Make sure it's a very high temperature grease suitable for that purpose on brakes as you want them to last.

A valid point. I had assumed a grease that specified itself as being suitable for brake parts would be compatible with the rubber components to. I have been using the Bendix Ceramic High Performance Synthetic Lubricant < https://www.bendix.com.au/content/hi...rake-lubricant > which according to their site is rubber and plastic compatible.
