Anti-Seizing compounds

I was wondering if I could use the Permatex brand antiseizing compound on
my bike's threading. It's silver in color, as opposed to the bronze color
of a small tube I bought from a bike shop.

If you're talking about this stuff: http://snipurl.com/dmc2, you
should be ok.

There's something about different anti-seizes for Ti bikes vs the rest.

Can somebody comment? It came up in another thread, but I still don't think I
understand.
