this evening i tried to use some automotive eletric contact cleaner i had lying around the house and it ate my mr-01 motor case. i removed my motor from the case and sprayed some contact cleaner into it while it was dangeling by the wires from the chassis. some of the cleaner got on the motor case when i sprayed and i didn't think anthing of it till i tried to reinstall the motor into the car. the motor case became brittle and crumbled when i tried to press the motor back into place. the motor and the rest of the chassis seem to be fine but my racer is out of comission till i get a replacement. tough lesson to learn but at least it only cost me a seven dollar part. the cleaner is made by crc and claims to be safe on all eletric auto parts. as long as they're not abs plastic i guess. anyways be careful.
