The silicone stuff is supposed to go on the back of the disc pads (not the part that comes in contact with the rotor), to keep the metal parts from making noise when rubbing. As for the drum pads, there are a couple of spots on the shoes that are metal to metal. You can use the same stuff on these parts, again *not* on the brake material or drum itself.
