has anyone heard of this before? i need it for my rear brakes on my 91 240sx according to the shop manual. its used in almost any spot that needs lubrication. the exact phrase thats used in the factory service manual is "rubber grease point"

i tried searching already and couldn't find it in nico. tried napa and kragen and still couldn't find it. searched google and found castrol red rubber grease but can't find it in the US because all of the links and sites are UK or Austrilian based.

rubber grease is a castor oil based grease designed to preserve and lubricate plastics, rubber and components such as o-rings, valves, diaphragms, cups and seals.

for the job i'm trying to do it goes on the pad retainers and the sliding pins that allow the pads to slide when they need to clamp and release.

anyone know anything about this? specifically where i can find and buy rubber grease or something that will do the same job? i'm probably just searching wrong but help me out.
