Probably not.

Anti-seize comes in two flavors (silver and copper-colored).   Both are 
basically very fine powdered metal (either aluminum or copper) suspended in a 
paste-like substance, so that it's a thick goo.   VERY slippery stuff.   The copper 
stuff is for use in high-temperature applications.

Based on that description you should be able to find it locally; if not let 
me know and I'll hook you up. :>)
