I've used this myself in the manner he suggests on Classic series calculators and it works.

Thanks very much for the clarification burkhard, that is the exact product I have and use (I learned about it from Katie here, years ago) and I was not even aware of the other products. And btw, one tube is a supply for many lifetimes, so get the smallest one you can.

I also agree with the comments GreyUser made, as internal application is better and less messy, but if the owner doesn't want to open the 45, I think this is best if done carefully.
