Just curious if anyone has ever suspected ACF-50 or
other corrosion treatment as being bad for some
plastic / bakelite type parts?

Nope.

My only gripe about Corrosion X is that it leaves oily streaks on the finish
(they wash off) for months after each application. Necessary evil, I
suppose.

You "wash" your airplane? Next you'll be giving your cat a bath.

Heh.

My airplane is parked under cover but not in a hangar. At BFM, jet engines
and APUs are running almost constantly at Mobile Aerospace Engineering.
Jet-A soot, dust and salt spray stick to the plane overnight when it gets
wet from condensation. I can wash it on Sunday and it will be filthy again
by Friday, just by sitting there.

Usually, I just give it a quick squirt bath with the hose. About every
other month it gets a real wash.
