Chemical Cleaning of Blackened Copper Wires.

Zoomup
After seeing the blackened C.P.C. in the metal back box in another post, I researched this matter and found this video clip showing the cleaning of blackened copper wires chemically, which should not remove too much copper as a mechanical abrasion might.

    Wot about cleaning, neutralising, drying then applying some synthetic grease like Superlube for long life protection?




    From Super Lube’s website, “Super LubeRegistered Greases and Oils have good electrical insulating properties and will protect electrical and electronic equipment“. So now we are introducing a grease to the terminal that has “good electrical insulating properties”. . . 


    Regards,

    Yes, but the high points on the metal easily penetrate through any thin film of protecting grease and still make good electrical contact. Also the grease can be applied AFTER the bare metal parts are mated if you wish, to exclude air and moisture, like applying Vaseline onto car battery terminals to reduce corrosion.


    Try this....
