It exists! Bosch makes (or at least markets) such a grease and it's great stuff.

I have a tube of the aTe brake cylinder paste that was a waste of money, but I have never seen the stuff you're talking about. Who makes it and what's special about it? I thought any good Lithium grease would do, but I prefer some with the Moly DiSulfide additive.
