I am cleaning an assortment of transmitters and receivers. Most have
wax residue in ventilation holes. I have tried using several cleaners
and soaps with a soft tooth brush and hot water. I can't find my old
style stiff pipe cleaners, only the new soft designer color ones. I am
going to try and find a store that stocks the old style ones.

Any suggestions on methods or products that will remove the wax without
damaging the paint???

I have done 1 and have 7 more to do, so easy is best!!!

Thanks

If I were looking for real pipe cleaners, I would go to a smoke shop.

Yes, I know, I used to buy them at smoke shops back in the sixties.
Haven't found one around here.
