I usually apply some anti-seize to my brake caliper bolts before
torquing after a front tire change. Now that seems to be a bad idea

John-
Clean off the bolts and apply them dry. Torque to the recommended torque.
Same situation applies. If they are coated with anti-seize, reduce the torque
wrench setting by 25-30%.
