Is'nt oil used as a 'surface acting agent' when it's thrown overboard to calm waves, to make boarding easier. surely a Surfactant is anything that reacts to waters surface in any way?. otherwise it'd be a Surftenredant:shrug: ...

I thought they put AF in 'Galvanic specific'(?). I would'nt put it in my all Cu system. Also I thought it was WaterWetter that left deposits on plastic if over~used?, and which also stained (silicone?, makes it go white?) tubing?...

I'm not being contrary on purpose my friend , it's just like I said, 'I'd like to know for sure' about soap being a good thing, I think it' could reduce tension of the water maybe, but it puts a film on top of the water as well?:shrug: .
I'm not being obstinate either, I've just seen one too many untruths touted as fact on the web before . so I'd like to be 100%...
