> Ok, Carl, either Deoxit works, or it doesn't. You've now alluded to both, and even admitted using it - so which is it?  I also stand by my earlier statement...I know of numerous equipment vendors that recommend and even market Deoxit, and of no electronics manufacturer that recommends an automotive solvent as a service aid. Do whatever you wish, but I value my clients and their gear, (worked for some of them for 30 years) so I'm not about to hose out someone's rig with a $2 can of brake cleaner.

   NWL (transformer company) in Bordentown, NJ *instructed me* to use "break cleaner" to remove the 
transformer oil from their components (remove from a transformer), before packaging them for return 
to the factory for repair.  I found it to be a splendid grease and grime remover.
