Help; greezed caliper guide pins, not silicon

[Robert Toms]

8:15 – 8:45

I thought I was doing preventive maintenance while I was changing my brakes. Guide pins were dry, and I had some lithium bearing grease on hand. I thought it would be fine and put that in there.

Doing some post-op Refresher on brake issues I found the above video.
It is mentioned to be difficult to remove grease, I’m here looking for suggested efficient methods to take care of the issue next time I’m down there.

Brake parts cleaner and a tube brush should do the trick in cleaning the grease out
