PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Permatex
Dielectric Tune-Up Grease is a silicone dielectric
compound whose dielectric and lubricitous properties facilitate
and improve tune-ups. The compound prevents voltage
leakage around any electrical connector thereby insuring a
strong spark in high energy automotive ignition systems. The
compound is an excellent lubricant on rubber, plastic and
ceramic surfaces and it also has good high temperature
properties, thus preventing fusing of spark plug boots to the
spark plug. It will make installation of the boots easier.
