[ARC5] Cleaning Capacitor Oil Leakage

[Peter Gottlieb]

Look at ebay 390487601808 for a military version (what I use).

You are 100% correct regarding synthetics.  I work on high power systems and at 
a minimum we wear Carhartt HRC 2 rated shirts and pants and prohibit anything 
synthetic which could melt.
