wd-40 for fluorescent light fixture sockets
dear Jim & Joseph: thank you for your quick replies. I have gone
ahead & purchased the DIELECTRIC product from Autozone. $3.95 for a
small tube. Pep Boys had it only in the larger size for $9.00.
best, Aaron

I have some horizontal flourescent light fixtures that have sockets to
accept horizontal bulbs with 2 pins at each end. in trying to
replace the bulbs, the bulb pins are stuck in the sockets.
would it be useful, and also safe, to spray wd-40 into the sockets
before inserting the bulbs?
best, Aaron
Not WD-40 (WD=Water Displacement). Use a dielectric grease. You can
find small qualities at an auto parts store. It is cheap enough.
