Folks, advice if you please - When attempting to clean out pots,
switches, etc., is De-Oxit noticeably better than other similar
products, or would a Radio Shack (for example) product work roughly as
well? Any precautions necessary to protect equipment? I have an
MFJ-1026 Noise Canceller, works gangbusters, but has those scratchy
pots that I'd like to try cleaning before I have to perform surgery.

What sort of shops will carry De-Oxit be acquired locally? I am in
the "Big City" (SF Bay Area).

I welcome and appreciate responses.

Thanks,

Deoxit and other Caig products work very well, and the results last. Don't think I've ever read a bad remark about them.

Other products I've tried have given temporary results, or worse, caused damage.

It's several years since I tried others - so it's possible they've improved - but it's easier to just make sure I keep stuff I know works in stock.

I mail order it through Caig.
