Caliper Rebuild - enclosed Lube packets Question

[ChrisW]

Having received the Rear Caliper rebuild kit from Acura (01473-SLO-J00), it contains (4) small packets of lube. Two are labeled but two just say G-40M and KS 62M. Can anyone explain the use of these two? I cannot get a reference to them in my shop manual on the 97 NSX and get conflicting info on the net.
Thanks,
Chris

Just a guess, but I'd say they are for lubing the slide pins.

No, the third packet says "Pin Moving portion" and the 4th packet says " Location: dust cover of caliper, cup of master cylinder".

The Service Manual does not mention the G-40M or the KS 62M. The Acura dealer where I purchased them could not tell me what they are for.

The clear-ish grease is the silicone grease that is for the piston and piston seal.
The pink one is for the piston boot, the orange one is for the caliper pin.

The links below helped me when I did my fronts.

Thanks for the answer and the links.
The Front caliper rebuild kits have just the 3 packets (Orange, Pink & Clear (KS 62M). However the Rear kits have the additional milky-colored lube G-40M. The Shin-Etsu site shows this as a hi-temp lube suitable for bearings. Since this is only in the rear kit, perhaps it is for the Emergence brake assembly which does have a small bearing according to the shop manual.
Any confirmation of this or other theories are welcome.
