Incandescent bulbs in my kitchen's ceiling fan seem to sort of get
corroded in place, probably due to the moist environment. I've got
electrolytic grease for the light bulbs on my boat trailer. Any reason
not to use a very fine coating on the threads of the bulbs in the ceiling
fan? I realize that conductivity isn't the goal with these bulbs, but the
stuff also serves to block moisture, if results on the trailer are any
indication.
Hi,
I never experienced that ptoblem even in a Sauna in the basement.
Moisture seeping down from above? Or you must have exessive moisture bulid
up in the kitchen. Have venting fan to outside?

Enormous fan, actually. I suspect the problem is simply cheap crap fixtures
made in China. Since there are no fixtures made here any more, you will
eventually own a Chinese fixture and experience the same problem.
