Here you guys go, there's a little bit of controversy about using it on electronics.

I don't think there's any "controversy".....I am just betting that if it fails, Rustoleum doesn't want to be blamed for ruining electronics. The company that developed it showed plenty of test with this product on electronics.

And Jeremy showed that it works in his post here.

Years ago there was an ad on TV of a guy who dunked a turned on light bulb in a bucket of water after spraying down the bulb, socket and wire with one of the LPS lubes. Forget which one; LPS 1, 2 or 3. He also reached into the water while the light bulb was on. Bare handed!

Alright somebody get a brand new MMxP and coat it with this stuff and then dunk it in some water. Let us know how it works. OK go!

I picked some up today on my way home from work. First thing I'm going to test it on..... the plunger lol!

Very cool stuff indeed. Imagine the endless possibilities!! It claims mud/sauces/water and basically everything they threw at it just slips right off. This would be ideal for r/c application such as the insides of 1/10-1/5 off road wheels after they water down a track and the dirt eventually cakes up into mud throwing your buggy or truck out of balance!

I remember my 5T beadlocks after a few laps on oval would be so caked up with loose dirt and mud inside the back of the wheels I'd have to hit it with a breaker bar to knock it all out before I could run again.
