[TowerTalk] Crank-UP Tower Cables.-WD40

[bill wall]

Hi all:
Merry Xmas. About WD 40. About 20 years ago a chemical engineer who works
for CRC told me that the WD 40 product in the blue and yellow cans was very
corrosive. There is a good chance the product in the can is changed. I use
LPS and CRC myself.
                                                    CU,
                                               Bill Wall KC4UZ
