They use literally "JB weld" from most companies I hav... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil The Claritycap MR Is just a killer cap.. in most applications my opinion will put out 98% of what a duelund does... Way better pricing on the smaller sizes.. Although not far behind in cost on the bigger values. | |
