I've been informed that it's slightly acidic & it "eats" into aluminium (?) 
For this reason (and maybe others) it's not approved for use in aircraft 
maintenance.

On the other hand it works really well as a lubricant when drilling/turning 
aluminium (At low speeds. It smells pretty bad when it burns :-).

Cheers,

Dave
