Re: Stabilant22 alternative?

Scott,

You probably already know that Stabilant and trace repair fluid do very
different things.  Stabilant is intended to improve healthy contacts,
whereas the trace fluid bridges a gap.  

I've used Stabilant on many contacts in my urQ.  I wouldn't say I've tested
it carefully or scientifically, but I believe it unlikely to repair any
high-resistance connection.  From what I've read about it, I believe that
once a connection is working well, the use of Stabilant is probably going
to extend the life of the connection, but that's about all.  I'd love to
hear of anyone else's experience with it.
