Product Information
Full details
Liqui Moly Ceramic Paste is a high-performance, metal-free, partially synthetic mounting paste ideal for automotive technicians and DIY enthusiasts who need to prevent seizing and corrosion on high-heat components. It excels at facilitating easier disassembly of parts like brake components, exhaust systems, and spark plug threads, though users should note that it is not designed as a lubricant for high-speed rotating bearings or internal engine parts.

FAQs
Can I use this on ABS brake systems?
Yes, because the formula is metal-free, it is safe to use on ABS brake systems and will not interfere with sensors.
Is this safe for aluminum-to-steel connections?
Yes, being metal-free prevents galvanic corrosion, making it ideal for joining dissimilar metals.
Can I use this for lubricating wheel bearings?
No, this is a mounting paste designed to prevent seizing, not a lubricant for high-speed rotating bearings.
What is the operating temperature range?
It is designed to withstand extreme high temperatures encountered in automotive exhaust and braking systems.
Is this paste conductive?
No, it is non-conductive, which is an advantage for preventing electrolytic reactions between metals.
Troubleshooting
Paste is difficult to spread
Ensure the surface is at room temperature; the paste becomes more viscous in extreme cold.
Component still seized after application
Verify that all rust was removed from the threads before the initial application and ensure that the correct torque settings were used.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Safe for use with ABS systems and aluminum components
- High temperature stability prevents hardening
- Prevents rust-freezing of threaded connections
- Metal-free content prevents galvanic corrosion
- Easy to apply with the included brush applicator
Cons
- Not intended for high-speed rotating bearing lubrication
- Small 50g tube may require frequent replenishment for high-volume shops
- May be overkill for non-critical, low-temperature fasteners
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum effectiveness, clean all contact surfaces of dirt, rust, and old grease before application using a brake cleaner. Apply a thin, uniform layer of the paste to the threads or contact area. Do not use this paste on components that require specialized high-speed bearing grease, as it is a mounting paste, not a high-speed lubricant. Keep the tube tightly capped when not in use to prevent the paste from drying out or collecting dust. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
