I concur. back in the day it was routine, edge cards came out, went in the dishwasher on DI and filtered water with Alconex. Dried in partial vacuum, then re-greased. Space qualified hardware.

Hello Amir, this and Caig Deoxit work wonders. I usually do a yearly breakdown of the entire rig for connection cleaning. On my system, the results are easily heard. On a system that hasn't been cleaned in a long time, the results can, as mentioned, be seen. Highly recommended.

This is what I do and find audible improvements. I use pipe cleaners once a month. Seems to work especially well on XLR interconnects and mic cables.

P.S. The lint-free cloths that Caig sells for this purpose are excellent.

Be careful to use special high temp ready Caig if you dare to clean vacuum tube pins and sockets!
