Dielectric grease on connection ends


I was changing a coil on one of my bikes earlier, and as always, applied a light film of dielectric grease on the coil outputs, and on the spark plug boots. A thought occurred to me that this may be a valid application in audio connections as well. A small amount applied with a cotton swab to bananas/spades/rca's etc. may help, and I'm thinking about giving it a go. Was wondering if this has been tried by any other members, and thoughts on the pro/con aspects.

Cleeds is right. Why put a dielectric on contact points? If you're worried about your connectors, clean them. There's several products on the market designed to do just that.
If you really want to try grease on your connections, you're probably better off using conductive grease instead. 
" Any suggestions. I have tried ordering other products from the US before (liquids) and always have been denied, due to cross-border restrictions on shipping liquids"

Freeze it before shipment.
