I've been using Deoxit to nail the problem of less than perfect connections
between the front panel and motherboard and the associated power-up error
messages on my early K3.
A 2ml tube over here costs around £6 uk pounds so I didn't want to be
splashing it on like after shave. I found those little interdental brushes
you can get from pharmacies etc are ideal; a drop of the stuff on the
bristles will coat loads of pins and the very fine ones will allow you to
clean inside the pcb sockets.
Still looking for a use for dental floss though - a couple of solar cycles
back the unwaxed stuff might have made great drive cord.......
