I own a 03 Protege DX and have heard of doing brake maintence on Honda's since I work at a Honda dealership. I know they mainly clean up the rust and lube up the slide pins. Does anyone have any pics on how to lube these pins and what type of grease to use? I am thinking about doing this brake maintence myself but I have no clue on how to get the caliper slide pins out to lube them up. Any information on how to do this is greatly appreaciated.

Thanks

I've always seen them use anti-seize. It's a metallic silver or gold goop that prevents rust and stays slippery for a long time. Just goop it up and make sure the caliper slides well.

Which area of cleveland are you from?
