Seeking anti-fretting lubricant for tin-plated electrical contacts

Seeking anti-fretting lubricant for tin-plated electrical contacts

Seeking anti-fretting lubricant for tin-plated electrical contacts

(OP)
My design is stuck with connectors having tin-plated contacts.  I understand that tin-plated contacts are vulnerable to fretting corrosion.  Can anyone recommend a lubricant that will do the trick?  The connections are static (e.g. non-dynamic).  Please no sales reps!  Engineers reply only.

Thanks!

Got an answer on my own.

I have a similar issue.  What lubricant did you choose?  Is it still working well?  

Thanks!
