Nothing should be applied to the guide pins, they should be assembled dry.

If it is designed to be an insulator, like the plastic compounds that set up, it can be applied to the backs of the pads, but you can get some reduction in brake pedal feel from that.

It is a high temp grease, and is suitable for use on the ears of the pads. I use this at the dealer, and honestly when I run out of it I just use anti-seize... And as always JCL is right, the guide pins should always be assembled clean and dry.
