Hi,
I haven't used Caig DeOxit only because I have brand X. When that gets
used up I'll lay in some genuine DeOxit. Others have testified as to
it's success and nobody has said anything bad about it. There are some
cautions about it (or the propellant) being flammable. I wouldn't use
ANY aerosol or solvent near an ignition heat source.
I have also used some of the the electrical equipment products from CRC
Industries and boldly labeled CRC. They have several different products.
The electrical contact cleaner they make seems less aggressive than the
stuff I bought at the Shack but it does work. Another product they sell
is real penetrating oil that I sometimes use on drill bits when I'm
working with metal. There may be quite a few products available..just
read the label. Asking here helps, too.
