I have a 4 oz bottle of NOALOX standing here.  I believe that I bought it
at H*me Dep*t 8 or 10 years ago.  I have sometimes applied it to electrical
connections when it wasn't lost.  Now at Idealindustries.com, I learn that
it is designed for aluminum; there is no such indication on the container
(except the name,   duh).

  I continue to use silicone dielectric grease on push-on connectors and
ground straps, etc. with good results.
