Does any one have a good concoction for the protective coating on the computer terminals that have to be cleaned off for a chip. Not that I want to clean them or anything

 

i think some people have tried hot glue, but i think you can go to radio shack and buy some conformal coating

 

Haven’t looked at mine yet but doesn’t the coating have a tint to it?

 

Someone once stated Humiseal was the name of the product.

 

what about the color of the connectors? i think they were grey before you scuffed them down to copper.

 

where would i find "Humiseal"?

I'm thinking some paint would do the trick there? what do you guy's think?

 

i think a little model car paint with a small brush would do the trick.

 

If you wanting to REMOVE it then use Xylene to soften/loosen the coating then humiseal thinner (521) to remove completely.

If you want to put it back (not that I would every do such a thing you know) but I'd think you could find some very high grit sandpaper ... lightly sand the connection to remove deep scratches then paint with a light grey paint.. let dry then cover with Humiseal (1b73 ap)

Of course I don't really know what Ford uses but I've been told this "looks" the exact same under a black light...

Nice disclaimer.

 

BLACK LIGHT!!?? They use a black light to look at the terminals to check it for tampering? Oh yea, and I’m only inquiring on this subject for educational purposes..

 

Remember : Pay attention to the Xylene warning label. This is coming from someone who used to haul 9000 gals. of gasoline all the time.

 

It glows blue under a black light but is clear in normal daylight.

 

it glows if it not factory or is factory

 

sounds like hot glue is out of the question. You guy's are cool!

 

i see you guys are up to no good
