Not to mention, that Home Depot (and Lowes), have even smaller bottles ,
4 oz,$6.00 , and think even 2 oz tubes, for even less! And a little
goes a long way! Jim NN7K

Well for those of us who don't get around so well, it was nice to have a
product name to ask for.
Home Depot had an even smaller tube 1/2 oz and I got some steel wool to
buff things up first.
both less than $6. I probably would have been an hour finding that tiny
tube hanging in the store.
With more days behind me now than ahead.... and hoping my next antennas
will be new ones. It should last me till my end. Kinda like buying a tube
of water pipe compound
once you use it once the rest hangs around forever. LOL
Thanks for brand name to ask for. Saved lots of steps I can't spare these
days.

There are a lot of us with that condition!
Time and physical demands have become important considerations on
projects. And the increasing memory problems that make it harder than
ever to find where I put things...
