Here's a Tech Bulletin from NGK on the subject. They state that all NGK plugs have a metal plating on the threads that acts as an anti-seize and nothing else is necessary, and in fact can cause problems. Some recent threads on this BB have shown a diversity of opinions and techniques regarding the use of anti seize.

NGK says only plugs with no coating would benefit...here's their bulletin:
