Red_Menace poking around since 1978 join:2001-11-03 Fruita, CO	Red_Menace Member 2013-Apr-6 11:48 pm Pretty much anything that gets exposed to the elements will get some kind of corrosion, especially if they are sealed well enough to hold in any leaks. I usually use a dab of dielectric grease on those kinds of electrical fittings.
