Have you tried SILCLEAR from Mapleshade?

Kontack is all i use the other stuff dries out etc.

Quicksilver is supposed to dry out, and leave the deposit of silver behind. The container can be taped(airtight) and placed in a vacuum sealed bag, which prevents it's drying out in storage.

Eggs ackly. The difference between a lubricant and a conductor.

my friend used it on his tube sockets. he reported that his system sounded very bright and thin. i have not and will not use it.

Mrtennis,

It takes about a hundred hours of playing music or playing a break in track before the Quicksilver or Quicksilver Gold loses any tendency toward brightness or stridency. Your friend should have waited. I use Quicksilver Gold on all tube pins, including those both NOS Sylvania 6SN7GT Bad Boys. They are not bright or thin.
