The dry is mainly for connections, and the lubricated is for sliding controls like potentiometers, and also switches. There are also contact enhancers which clean and coat the contacts to prevent oxidization. Any electronics parts store will have all three.

Baking soda and water... cleans corrosion somethin' fierce... Wink

...

on battery terminals when acid is present..
can coat your corroded copper conducter in vinegar then dip in baking soda then itll foam and fizzle..
that mix makes a good drain opener also..

corrision inhibiter is at auto stores,electrical section of the home improvement/hardware store..also call anti oxident
conductors need to bee clean first..
a good spray on for contacts is made by crc...
