Goodyear Brake Parts

The spark plug anti-seize is usually graphite-based. (At least Champion's spark-plug anti-seize is.)
One of the very best anti-seize I've ever found (for any purpose at all, including brake pins and spark plugs is Permatex Anti-Seize. It is sold by auto-parts stores and Tractor Supply Co. in a small, grey bottle, with a brush included as part of the cap. It's a silvery, anti-seize, high-temperature paste. (It is also sold in a smaller quantity, ...in a toothpaste-type tube.) If you use any type of anti seize near/on your brakes, use it sparingly. Excess will only attract dirt/dust. Do not get any on the brake linings or disc.
If you use it on wheel-halve assembly bolts, do not allow it to get onto your tube or tire. Remember that any lubricant at all on bolt/nut threads will change the torque readings, unless the torque specified is for lubricated threads.

I clean the whole brake assembly with spray-on brake cleaner, and use LPS for lubing the pins.

I use WD40 or LPS, whichever's handier.
