Is It Time For Minelab To Make A New Beach Pi?
rvpopeye replied to mn90403's topic in Minelab Metal Detectors
mn Do you mean using silicone after using contact cleaner ? Never tried it but probably not a good pick. I guess you could try it and if you have issues , use contact cleaner again to remove it. WD40 would be another "what's on hand" option but it dries and loses most of it's lubing ability. -
Is It Time For Minelab To Make A New Beach Pi?

Use "tuner/fader cleaner" if you can find some , it has lube mixed in with the cleaner. Link : https://www.amazon.com/Hosa-F5S-H6-DeoxIT-FaderLube-Spray/dp/B00006LVF1/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3OQ941EJ6UO7E&dchild=1&keywords=deoxit+f5+fader+cleaner&qid=1632395618&sprefix=DeOxit+F5%2Caps%2C184&sr=8-3 DeOxit also comes in other formulations.. D5 is awesome contact cleaner / preserver S5 is a sealer for harsh environments. I haven't tried the S5 yet but the D5 and F5 have been road tested many times in the last ~40 years ! Top shelf stuff. -

A Tenderfoot’s Tale - Part 2
rvpopeye replied to Old Line Paul's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
The key to using any detector is just getting that coil over a target . You seem to have that part down. Dig those beeps no matter what is down there . It's the best way to understand what the machine is telling you. -
More Silver Today And A Weeks Worth Of Finds
rvpopeye replied to Dan(NM)'s topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
He should go out and buy a cheap diamond lookalike ring , then bring it in from the back yard with dirt all over it and show it to his wife and daughter......... Then they'll go out and buy him a GPX6000 ! -
A Tenderfoot’s Tale - Part 2
rvpopeye replied to Old Line Paul's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
You're catching on , using a probe is pro level stuff ! You can cut a slit in the turf and probe easier. I use one of those tools for taking off old style door and window handles that looks like a big tack puller. I'd go back and try the soccer field again , Discrimination might also be ignoring those gold chains ... -
That's cool ! Should be a fun hunt . I'll make it back out that way someday and find everything y'all miss !😋
