The ad for "gold" indicates it should be used on
"gold, silver, rhodium, copper, bronze, nickel, etc." Basically, plated
contacts. I suppose that it would not be good for potentiometers.

That said, I just use the plain Deoxit on just about everything. The
only other product I use is calilube (nopefully not renamed).

So, looking at the Caig website, there is the following run-down on
three product lines:

DeoxIT - Contact Cleaner & Rejuvenator - Brings Old Systems Back to
Life!

DeoxIT Gold (formerly ProGold) - Contact Conditioner & Protector -
Maintains New System Performance!

DeoxIT Shield (formerly PreservIT) - Contact Protector - Maintains New
System Performance in Severe Environments!


Okay, so the first of these, DeoxIT is the D5 stuff that everyone in
here seems to use for cleaning purposes. I guess, then, that this is
what I"m in need of. My question is this: what is this DeoxIT Power
Booster that Radio Shack sells along w/DeoxIT Gold? Link below:

Asking because, if it's the case that this Power Booster is the same
product as the D5, I'd prefer to pick it up, rather than order it
online.

Thanks in advance for any insight provided w/regard to the above
question...
