Remote control question
Remote control question
Hi all. I have a question that I hope some one may know the answer to. When a conductive rubber contact, like the button of a TV remote, no longer works because the conductive graphite substance has worn off, I've used conductive glue made for this in the past with great results. I bought a tube a few years back. It's very expensive and I can't find it locally. Someone has told me that you can simply apply a drop of Crazy Glue and sprinkle some graphite ( the kind used for locks) and it works just as well.
Does any one know if this is true? Have any of you ever tried this? or any other ideas?

Re: Remote control question
I tried something like that with mixed results. My victim was a SONY shortwave radio. I scraped off some pad material from a junk TV remote and made a slurry with acetone, (I think it was).
It did actually adhere pretty well and I was able to get a couple of dead buttons working...but not all of them.

What about trying a rear window defogger repair kit? This is a type of conductive paint.
