LPS-2 also works. Just don't have this work done in the winter. Once
the temperature comes up, it'll drip for two weeks in the hot sun.


Don't you mean LPS 3? LPS 2 is a lube, LPS 3 is much thicker and is
a corrosion preventative

(and while were on the subject...LPS1 is a non-oily lube)

I thought it was LPS-3. That's what we use and much cheaper than the
other ones but just as effective.

ACF 50 very good at stopping corrosion. In spots where you can clean
it up apply some linseed oil or stand oil. I have used ACF for the
last thirty years on my Cherokee. Also good for old radios and
electrical connections. Rejuventates the plastic also in the interior.
Apply the ACF 50 yourself with compressed air and spray nozzle. It
inproves anything it comes in contact with.

Plus it turns peeled apples green, and is a great steak marinade.

Nah, Corrosion X tastes much better than ACF 50 IMHO.

Not sure what "stand oil" is but I do know that linseed oil is
flammable.
Is ACF 50 or Corrosion X flammable?

Just a question.
I know that linseed oil is sometimes used to coat the inside of tubing
on ragwings.
Does linseed oil affect the insulation on wiring?
These may seem like trivial questions to ask but it is the small
details which can bite you at the most oppertune times.

Nope, LPS 2. You need the penetrating ability of the solvents in
LPS-2.

LPS-3 is much thicker and I doubt its ability to penetrate into some
areas.


(and while were on the subject...LPS1 is a non-oily lube)

I think of LPS-1 as being WD-40 with a different smell. IE a
penetrating oil that has a lot of solvents that will evaporate.

You don't spray gasoline oil or engine oil all inside your airplane.
