Sprays for car electrics
Automotive electrical connection sprays are designed to prevent corrosion, improve conductivity, and protect against moisture.
Types of electrical sprays:
* Spray cleaners: Remove dirt, grease and oxidation from electrical contacts and connectors.
* Spray lubricants: Lubricates moving electrical components, reducing friction and wear.
* Sealant Sprays: Create a waterproof barrier around electrical connections, protecting them from moisture.
* Preservative Sprays: Protect electrical contacts from corrosion and oxidation, extending their life.
Benefits of using electrical sprays:
* Prevent corrosion and oxidation
* Improved conductivity
* Moisture protection
* Reduces friction and wear on moving components
* Extends the life of electrical connections
Application of electrical sprays:
1. Clean electrical contacts or connectors using contact cleaner.
2. Apply lubricant to moving components (if applicable).
3. Apply sealant around electrical connections.
4. Apply a protective coating to the contacts for added protection.
