--- Quote from: Paceguy on June 15, 2022, 11:13:22 am ---Many kinds of contaminants can lead to the long term degradation of the material used to make these handles. I worked in the aerospace industry and synthetic turbo engine oil was one of the worst for this. Just a light film from hands on anything plastic, would cause them to become brittle within a few months. --- End quote --- Wow that's not one that would have occurred to me. I wonder if synthetic automotive oil does the same? I'm going to have to be more careful. |
