Hi,

Deoxit by Caig Labs replaces the Cramolin product.

The D5 is a 5 % concentration and normally cleans up most dirty contacts and
surfaces.
Very little is needed.

Hi Luke,

Thanks for your update. The suggestion of using Hydrochloric Acid for
contact cleaning is one of the most outrageous suggestions I've seen
come down the pike. I read of one poster who had obtained a gallon to
accomplish a task, who then asked "what do I do with the 99.99% left
over?"

After I had just participated in the Washington Toxic Coalition's fund
raiser the night before, the posting of indiscriminate advice that
toxic chemicals are the best choice over and beyond what is a simple
fix with Mark's allen wrench was another nail in the environmental
coffin for our children.

I fielded a contact problem for a local here and offered an even
simpler suggestion: use clean water. Complete immersion followed by
air drying at an elevated temperature works far better than a vat of
chemicals.

For those plagued with static problems, visit:
www.aclstaticide.com/
which is one of the best and safest anti-static products on the
market. You can use it as a spray or a wash, and do your floors or
carpets with it without the fear of toxicity.
