Porsche/brembo brake pad fitting

[alg]

What is the forum consensus on using copper based grease on fitting pads to the porsche/brembo type brake setup.

Against
It causes build up of cr*p which can interfere in theory with the free movement of pads over time.
I believe porsche advise against although reasons unclear

For
May reduce noise
May improve well known 'corrosion' issues with galvanic (sic?) build up between alu/steel back plate.

Comment welcome and as a friday treat a wee poll

I usually put copper slip on the back of my pads when changing them, always have.

Oh I smear the stuff on like it is going out of fashion on my pads/anti squeal shims. Love the stuff.
No idea why Brembo say to not use it. What do they know eh.

I used it on those anti squeal thingy bobs that go into the pistons on the 996's.
Always used it on all other cars before, never had any probs.

Actually a porsche tech told me that they use anti-seize on the back of the pads and on the guide plates. I use Nickel anti-seize, because it is higher heat based than the Copper based. Use the Nickel on all exhaust stuff too.
