Light bulb lube???
" I've noticed that when changing lightbulbs that the socket seems
" quite "rough" and the bulbs don't screw in smoothly. I always " wonder if the contact is as good as it could be. " Is there something I can apply to the threads of the bulb to " "lubricate" them? I haven't tried this with lightbulbs but I put a little heat sink compound one the screw portion of my soldering iron. Before, the tip used to freeze in the iron, requiring replacement of the iron because I couldn't get the old tip out. Warning: the heat sink compound I have has a warning not to ingest. ¯ ® ¯ Barry.Martin þ at þ QCONline,COM ® ¯ ® ...
