Ground prep 120-130

Thanks all.

We used alodine on aluminum aircraft (F-15s, A-10s, Cessna 172s etc).
Volvos are steel.

Was wondering if something similar is used on steel car bodies to be conductive, yet prevent corrosion.

Zinc phosphate etc?

Dielectric grease…is it conductive or a sealant or both?
i.e. can you put it ON wires and terminals or just over lug/screw head after attached?

I’ve used POR 15 products on 122 battery trays (works GREAT with fiberglass matting to repair battery acid damage), exhaust manifolds and ’64 Airstream trailer frame (also worked great). It takes moisture from the environment, sealing out oxygen and is hard as nails. Also impossible to remove from skin.

Sealing OVER grounds with POR15 might help after initial ground prep.
