I'm in the middle of replacing my rear pads, rear drum hat brake shoes, and hardware. I have Permatex Ceramic Extreme Brake parts lubricant, permatex silicone ceramic extreme brake parts lubricant, white lithium grease and regular old permatex anti-seize. I've read and watched lots of different methods for lubing the adjuster. What's the best lubricant for the adjuster and way to lubricate it?

Another for permatex copper. I use regular permatex antiseize for everything else, but the copper for the brake. Any good grease that won't tend to wash off or sling is probably fine. It's easy enough to check from time to time, but if you get everything good and clean and don't put so much that it can push the boot open and you are probably better than 90% of the brakes I see.
