My understanding is that the base is a high temperature grease - needed for brake pads - loaded with copper particles to aid heat dissipation/transference. Just to sing its praises even more, it's great for other areas where heat is an issue and you might want to disassemble again sometime: exhaust bolts, spark plugs, manifold bolts, etc.

One thing to note. It smells amazing, but is inedible. I'm forever tempted (woof)

Just as an aside. I once spent quite some time trying to fix squealing front brakes without success before discovering that the back brakes were the actual culprits. Sounded for all the world like it was coming from the front.
