Walkers SST silver treatment

How long can you leave it on your contacts until it needs to be cleaned and retreated??? Will it tarnish? Thanks

If you don't disturb the connection, my experience suggests that it should stay in good condition indefinitely without retreatment. (Walker Audio makes no claims about this, it's just my experience with it.) If you do retreat the connection, Lloyd recommends removing the existing SST first (isopropyl alchohol takes it off easily), then reapply. .

I have used it and it does show an improvement.
