I put brake grease everywhere except the pad to rotor suffice. No need to get crazy but a liberal application is OK. 90 percent will heat up and evaporate anyway.

Me being from Louisiana and all could possible assist you in the installation of the brake pads. As for where to apply the grease I would put it on the back of the pads, not the side that is going to make contact with the rotor.
