Sorry to bring this one back up, but I was cruising the Classiccmp
archives and read the thread.
I liked the idea of dipping the erasor in alcohol. Nice bearing fluid and
would help reduce abrasion as well as acting as a solvent and carrier for
gunk.
Not all contacts are gilt which is one application for abrasives. The
hard disk MIO for my Atari 8-bit is an example. It's traces are unfinished
tin-colored things and they oxidize rapidly.
Some of you folks had solutions to check the oxidation such as silicone
grease. Could you amplify on this and especially what type of grease and
where to find it.
Thanks all.
Jeff
