Bought OEM brake pads for my rsx-s. GREASE PACKET??
What Im asking is this grease thing that came with the brake pads.
How do I apply it?
I am thinking it goes between the brake pad and the metal bracket as a cement glue. is that right? or does it go on the brake pads itself, that help with squeal?
Any inputs would be great, Thanks.

You know how the pads attach to the caliper via a plate-and-clip arrangement? The lubricant goes between the plate and the back of the brake pad. not on the front of the pad, which comes in contact with the rotor, but on the back.

The grease you have is commonly referred to as anti squeal.
It goes in between the shim and the back of the brake pad and it helps prevent squeaky brakes.
Do not under any circumstances apply it to the side of the brake pad that makes contact with the rotor. Try to keep your dirty hands off of that side of the pad and the rotor as well.
