Scratchy Pots on amplifiers - what do you use?

[pasinbyyou]

What's the best cleaner you use for scratch pots on old amps, or new ones?

I use a brand called Caig De-oxit. It is widely regarded as the best stuff for the pots and input jacks on our gear. You dont want to use stuff from the auto parts store, Its too harsh I found this out the hard way it made the pots in one of my amps feel super loose. The De-Oxit works perfectly.



Below is a link to where I get it

Pro Gold contact cleaner followed by compressed air to blow out the excess, then wipe away.

Yes CAIG ProGold is the best one from my own experience... It also works for switches and console faders...
