OK..... Gotta ask. Why???
any issues with corrosion?
It gives a bit more suppression.
Not worth the hassle or mess IMHO.

could any electrical semiconductor type gel work?Ultrasound gel
IMHO it is one of the best. And you can get free samples online. I have plenty for all my uses.
Hmmm... I'm not too sure. I just know that there was somebody in the suppressor world (can't remember who) that was buying ultrasound gel and repackaging it as a high-tech ablative. Many have touted it as a great ablative that "stays put" in the suppressor.could any electrical semiconductor type gel work?
How well does it work though? The idea of an ablative is the the ablative changes phases (evaporates) which draws more energy out of the hot gasses. In theory you don't want it to "last longer", you want the ablative to evaporate as it is intended to do.Just get a can of white spray grease. It foams up at first to spread around a little and stays sticky with out dripping any where.
A little solvent of about any kind will melt it right out of the can when you want to clean it but one squirt will last quite a while instead of blowing out in a couple shots like water or wd40
