Mike, I coated the male and female sides of my RAM mike connection with TefGel at installation. No issues for years.
If it were me, I'd spray the connections liberally with Boeshield T-9 (which every boater should have on their boat 24/7), make the connection several times, then coat with TefGel. Dennis C.
