An aluminum rack attached to an aluminum frame is foaming at the (presumably steel) machine screws. The foam looks like the cruft that gathered around battery posts in old cars. The wire that powers the taillight from the hub generator is wrapped around the center of the rack a couple times.
This rack did not cause any foaming on the aluminum frame it used to be on - but it didn't have a wire running through it either. Is this an expected reaction? Could the wire be helping? If I wrap the wire more closely could it create enough torque to run a propeller? <vbg> I'd like to stop the foaming - any tips or should I treat it like a battery post and coat it in Vaseline once in a while?
