Dialectric grease any thoughts

First you have to kill a chicken......Why would anyone want to put dielectric grease on electrical connectors other than to tame a problem in the design as it will roll off the highs?

best bet is rubbing alchohol, also the best to use to clean all electonics!

Anyone ever try that "HIGHLY CONDUCTIVE" silver based grease that J Scull wrote up in a few months back in his "Fine Tunes" column ? While i would not use it on audio connections, it may have its' uses elsewhere and was just curious about other's thoughts and experiences with it. Sean

Sean I think you're referring to ConductoLube, a silver impregnated type of grease. I've used it successfully on large industrial DC battery wet cell systems; the connections between cells are made with open frame lead plated buss bar.
Cheech - rubbing alcohol is not even close to being the best contact cleaner; it contains lanolin, a contaminating oil, which as stated above is not desirable for our audio applications.

Bob , with rubbing alcohol, it is the ideal cleaner for your audio components, ( faceplates, cases , audio racks, cables ,ect. i recommended this to all my customers and they seemed to agree. the oil content is so minute , you will never know it there. as for contacts it cleans perfectly, helping to prevent oxidation, commonlly found in the jacks and back of unit conectors, Rubbing alcohol never held any dust , nor attracts it. what's wrong maybe it too cheap? ever thought what is in "Kontact or Ultraconnect"
I advise people in this thread to try it with a white terry towel ( wash rag ) and tell me what you think. Bob you may have some knowlege in industrial aplication in the mater, but I have knowlege in both. In mater of fact Levinson and a few others recommend this and uses it themselves! call Sara Reed of madrigal.
