Everyone should have at least 1 sachet of brake rubber lube.  It does last 
forever and the options
ruin any paint work that was done on the calipers.   If all else fails, 
split the calipers, use new bolts,
torque to 35ft lb and install a new square edged rubber seal between the 
halves.     The archives should have a ton on this one.
