Default Wheel Installation

In the service manual it says to apply a light coat of ANTI-SEIZE lubricant to axle, bearing bores, and bore of spacer sleeve, when installing a wheel. What kind of anti-seize do most of you use, and is there anything special I should do when Appling it.
Thanks Jonnierock

Doesn't really matter. I use copper because it's what I have. The silver stuff makes less of a mess when you invariably get it on everything.
