[QUOTE="Al U Minium, post: 498587, member: 20945"] Stick with the Fluid Film. Don't use Isopropyl alcohol anywhere near Lexan or plexiglass (or your eyeglasses). It will remove protective coatings and can cause fracturing of some plastics. Windex (blue) is an awesome cleaner around boats, wires, connectors. Once the gold plating is gone the base metal will deteriorate quickly in electrical connectors. When you spray Fluid Film into an electrical connection that has corrosion, it will bubble and get the corrosion out of the way. Fluid Film is food safe and is perfect for boats. Use it on your hydraulic rams to keep rust off that can ruin seals. If you must substitute for Fluid Film, try LPS-1 for penetrant / lube, LPS-3 for sealing For stuck metal that has corrosion, use iodine (povodone 10% topical usp is good), and it can be in your first aid kit.
