[Amps] conductive grease for roller inductor

[Chris Miller]

I have used a product from GC electronics called Tunerlube, part number 
10-2610.  Probably is enough in the tube to relube every roller inductor in 
the province/state.   It is originally designed for those old TV rotary 
tuner mechanisms and switch contacts.  So far no surprises with the roller 
inductor in the linear amp.  Back of the bottle also refers to a contact 
cleaner fluid to prep surfaces.

I have also used the Deoxit product below for more general contact issues. 
Nice stuff.  I didn't realize the range of products available from them. 
Time to go exploring the website I think.
