RE: [ST] Rear brake pad wear
Anti-seize is a high pressure grease with flakes of aluminum, copper or
nickle and maybe other metals mixed in. Aluminum anti-seize is most common.

Subject: [ST] Rear brake pad wear
I remember some listers reporting rapid or uneven rear brake pad wear (on my
ST they were replaced at 12K). I've just seen the same problem mentioned in
a BMW R series tech guide. "Warning: Due to a sticky rear brake retaining
pin, the rear pads can wear out in only a few thousand miles. Clean the pin
with fine emery paper and lube it with anti-seize. "
What's anti-seize? Is it copper grease?
