Having read so many threads recommending to check grounds for various issues- I've been thinking about adding well formed "caps" made of Butyl tape ('cause I got plenty on hand).
Besides being a little messy upon disassembly, particularly on ground points with multiple grounds - are there any less-than-obvious drawbacks to using butyl rubber tape to form encapsulating 'caps' for the purpose of corrosion protection over ground points? I'd be considering this for exterior grounds lug areas in particular. I know there are specific products for this purpose but I've got plenty of butyl on hand and it kind of seems more permanent too. Anyone done this? |
