magic motor spray

i was driving around my new microsizer when i noticed it was doing something funky, it would slow down and speed up slightly, occilating like. i pulled off the spur gear an listened to the motor. it sounded rough and it varied in speed. up and down and such. anyhow i took a chance and pulled out this "contact renue and lube" spray, which is an industrial spray for electric switches and the like. anyhow the motor i have is the 2.2 that comes with the microsizer, and lo and behold it has two small holes in the back. i squirted this stuff in, intending to drench the commutator and brushes. Bam i stuck the moto back it and it just hummed like a bee. stuck the wheels and gears back on, zoom. faster than ever. anyhow, yea i suggest if you really want your motor to perform go find some stuff like this. i dont know where to find it but it must be around.
just to note, its NOT wd-40. this stuff is made for degreasing electronics and contacts and switches, so its made for electronics, plus it has a lube, which is always a good thing. wow i'm writing a long message. oh yea, im not selling anything, just letting you all know what to look for. zam!

My 2.2 does the same thing. What is the product called? Does anyone else know anything about this?

Thanks for the info.

okay well it says on the can "Cntact Re-Nu & Lube" and its by miller-stephenson chemical company inc. which im sure dosent help much. im sure they sell something similar at electronics suppliers (Not like Radioshack, i mean industrial suppliers.)
