Question regarding Deoxit products
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: http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...tPa ge=search 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... Junius |
Question regarding Deoxit products
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). junius wrote: 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!

Junius Use the Red stuff to clean and rejuvenate; the Gold stuff at 1 year intervals (give or take) for subsequent maintenance. |
Question regarding Deoxit products
I once found a mostly empty spray can of CRC 222 at a scrap metal yard
about twenty years ago.The best stuff I have ever used for removing battery corrosion,yes,it was amazing to me how well it worked.When that old can of CRC 222 ran out,I checked the industrial supply stores and some other stores for CRC 222.Not available anymore.I haven't ever used Deoxit before,but I very much doubt if it is much good. cuhulin |

(May have still been offered in Canada for a while after it disappeared from the USA.) I got the distinct impression that DeOxit was different by one or two chemicals. DeOxit smells like tinkertoys. :) -- All relevant people are pertinent. All rude people are impertinent. Therefore, no rude people are relevant. -- Solomon W. Golomb |

DeoxIT 5 is magic! I have been an evangelist for it for 10 years now.
