Lubricant for Power supply 4 pin connectors?

[Toro 45]

Is there some kind of Electical lubricant you can use on the 4 pin connectors on a power supply.Some are better than others but on my Enermax 300watt for example it's a reat bitch
to get them off.Don't want anything that makes a big mess, just looking for a light application.

haven't ever heard of anything like that.

just use 2 pairs of needle nose pliers. one on the female part and one on the male and yank.

Slap some KY Jelly on it.

Never felt the need for it, but I suppose a little dielectric grease would be OK, you can get it at the electronics or auto parts store.

sandpaper. it will fit loosely though after you use it

LOL @ the sandpaper idea... I'd use pliers for a tough connector, although I have never heard of (nor do I know anything about) that DeoxIT lubricant that Dulorn suggested... I don't think that lubricant is a good idea at all though.

Maybe apply some of that powdered graphite that is used for lubricating lock mechanisims with a cotton swab?

dielectric grease would work as it doesn't conduct electricity, I see it often used in spark plug boots.
I am not sure if it would work or not as far as getting the cable on/off easier?

Are you sure you want to start spreading goop inside your computer? It may get warm and drip = BAD!
