Silicone spray is a versatile lubricant used in many applications. It consists of silicone oil, dissolved in a solvent. This spray is known for its excellent lubricating and protective properties. Here are some applications for which you can use silicone spray:

Protection against corrosion: By forming a thin protective layer, silicone spray protects metal parts against rust and corrosion, even in humid conditions.
Water repellent properties: Silicone spray can be used to make electrical contacts and wiring water resistant, reducing the risk of short circuits.
