Take emergency work break. Buy emergency ice cream bar on wood stick. Discard ice cream by any convenient manner to avoid contamination. {Get spare ice cream bars.} Keep receipts for tax returns. ;-)

If you cut the top off you can dip the wire in there too, and then buy a cone instead of a pop!

While we're on the subject of noalox,I use cu. for most of my services(residential).

Due to the influence of a previous employer.and out of habit,I use noalox on cu. conductors also.

Is this a bad habit,poor practice?

Some of these products are listed for use with aluminum only, others listed for copper/aluminum, and still others listed for copper/copper, or combinations of theses. Look at the instructions. There is at least one compound that is not suitable for copper/copper connections.
