PB BLaster Warning!
So I went to log on to the internet this morning and had no connection.
So I hollered at my kid upstairs to check the hub out, he usually knocks
something loose when this happens.
A couple minutes later I hear an 'oh ----'.....
Well, he had found a can of PB Blaster someone brought me up from the
USA that I had stashed for those tough bolts and decided to use it like
WD40 as a contact cleaner in the LAN hub.
The stuff dissolved all the LAN cable plugs!!!! He pulled and all that
came out was the wires and pins, the plugs had melted away!
So be warned, the stuff is a good penetrant, but is 'really' bad for
electrical plugs.

It's fun to squirt it in a styrofoam cup... :-)

Less drivel, more Dremel.
Always carry a flagon of whiskey in case of snakebite,
and furthermore always carry a small snake.

Re: PB BLaster Warning!
The can must say caustic, which means it will eat aluminum, too.
It's off the PH scale in the other direction from acid. I thought you
were going to say don't use it as a flame thrower. ;-)

Re: PB BLaster Warning!
WD40 will eat through styrofoam!
Tried using those old styrofoam coolers as a cleaner bath to soak some parts
in. Lo and behold I ended up mopping all the guck up after it ate through
the cooler bottom!
