Way back, (courtesy of Mr Peabody's machine) in the dark ages of 1957
there was a service bulletin issued by Chrysler that had an attached
'Letter' advising the usage of sillycone on parts of the 'new cars'.
Seems They were Not concerned about mucking up the paint, but more
interested in what the sillycone products could do to solve customers
complaints.

Just tossing that out there into the spray of stray electrons that
end up clogging the internet these days.

If sillycone products were to be used in the internals of car assemblies
that rarely will see the need for being 'wrenched' I might be in favor
of using the stuff just for the longevity of the product.
Of course it might be a good thing to keep in the back of the brain,
'clean room' practices might help avoiding cross contaminations.
