Lubricating switches...

[GoldOxide_imp]

Thanks GO.

I particularly like Vaseline because its bulk fills up the tiny gaps in the casing where water can ingress the switch. Yes, the tiny bits of visible Vaseline surface get grubby-looking, but that's the only downside I can see.

But I'd just like to get confirmation (or otherwise) from others.

(Ps - where's "The Golden Horseshoe"?? )

My Google search top reference comes up with this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Horseshoe

... which is essentially correct.

The horseshoe refers to the western arc region of Lake Ontario. It is the most densely populated and industrious region of Canada. It is also my stomping grounds.
