Lubing Caliper Slide rails???

I spent many years lubing the bolts for the caliper slides before I figured out I was lubing the wrong part. If you look at how it all goes together, I think you'll see it as I do.
On the caliper, there are 2 rubber bellows covering a metal tubes that the bolt pass through. When it is all bolte together, the tube must remain stationary on the bolt, it's clamped between the head of the bolt and the caliper mounting bracket. The caliper slides back and forth over the tubes. You need to pop the tubes out of the bellows, clean them, stick some grease in there and stick them back in.

Sometimes I'll also lube where caliper sits on the caliper mount.
rarely do i use antisqueal on a set of pads
I use CRC black brake grease
of course this is just my way of doing it
