[TenTec] OT - Desk Microphone Switch Issue

[R. Eric Sluder via TenTec]

I'll second that comment.  It "may" work for electronics; though I've not had much luck with it, but it'll leave interesting deposits that I've found in firearms lubed and cleaned with WD40.  That evidence is enough to prompt me to refrain from spraying it on much anything else.
