Has anybody used this paste that Al sells? Does it work?

Thanks...I ask because it seems to me it might gunk up the works inside and outside, but what do I know?

I've heard great things about the similar LGB product. I would think it works...it's just conductive grease, right? You could probably pick up a tube of it at any hardware store, though.

With almost $8 shipping for a $1 item, I'd look locally for someone who sells "conductive lube" for automotive uses -- an automotive parts store such as NAPA, Wal-mart, K-mart, Target, etc. should all have it.

It's for use on rail joiners, so any similar item made for automotive electrical connectors should basically be the same product. 

And why a concern about "gunking up the works?"  You shouldn't be using it on your locomotives.
