The thing I like best about the high voltage rated dielectric (silicone) grease is that it (apparently...) works and lasts on tube pins and sockets, while the Caig stuff I've tried works for maybe a session on tube pins and sockets, and then it goes bad.

Nothing has been re-cleaned or re-treated since my previous post, which means the last treatment is still effective for all connections where I used it.  (I have not tried, nor do I plan to try, greasing rotary-type switches).

If I remember correctly, the Caig worked for 4 - 6 months on low voltage connections and switches before it needed renewal.

Best regards,
Paul S
