Post by JonPost by JonFirst I bought a 2 ml tube. It worked so well that I bought a 24 ml
bottle. No more dropped cable internet connection. I used the Deoxit
at the splitter and haven't had a problem since. It needs redone
about once every couple of months. We have one dog, mixed breed.
There's no breaker or fuse in the outlet boxes, but I currently have
it plugged into a surge suppressor with a breaker on it.
I need to ground out the metal tool boxes.
Yikes! Yes you do. Also, depending on how stiff the metal is and
clearance to bottom, make sure that when inserting a plug, that there
is no chance of forcing the outlet down to short against the bottom
cover. A solid insulator (plastic, high density cardboard or the like)
glued to the bottom of the box gives some extra protection.
I bought the DeOxit to try renewing relays in my office's elevator
control rack. The six pole 48V relays were no longer available so it
was an easy solution. I've since used it to renew the contacts in the
side mirror control of my 2001 Saturn car. Good stuff. If you ever
need a penetrating oil, I swear by Kroil from Kano Labs. I was
removing a rusty exhaust manifold and soaked it down with Kroil the
night before. Put a little more on in the morning before I started and
all the bolts came out without a single problem.
PBBlaster works well too. Loosened up the studs on an exhaust manifold
like butter.
