I just got a little bottle of DeoxIT® Gold. I understand it’s a good for connection between connectors e. RCA, XRL plugs. I am wondering whether it could be applied in AC power cord, say put on the AC wires direct. The reason why I asked, I saw some HiFi factory terminated cable with some liquid on the wires between connectors. Unsure, DeoxIT® Gold would be for this too.

I own vacuum tube home audio preamplifiers. The amplifier in particular runs pretty hot due to 8 KT120 power tubes, as do the smaller 12au7 signal tubes. The preamp gets warm with the 2 5ar4 rectifier tubes & 12au7 signal tubes. Total of 22 tubes combined. I purchased your vacuum tube survival kit (SK-GXMD).
I am wondering if the DeoxIT® Gold GXMD 100% solution that came with it can also be used on my male and female RCA connections on both my gear and interconnects, also my banana connectors on my speaker cables binding posts? I know the Gold GXMD is for higher temp applications, but will it work for my other connections? I think the VTSK is fantastic! If my contacts connections are clean, do I really need to use the DeoxIT D25L? I use it mainly on my tube pins, which is where most if not all the oxidization & crud occurs.

I’m planning to refurbish the contacts of my old car-HiFi system. Is it a good 3-day practice to use first the DeoxIT® D-Series for cleaning the contacts, then the DeoxIT® Gold G-Series for the golden contacts and at last to seal them with the DeoxIT® Shield S-Series? Or is it a disadvantage to mix up the products this way? The car is exposed to the mid-European weather the whole year, so moisture and fast temperature changes is a problem even inside of it.

I need to know which product which would be the best to clean volume pots on musical equipment. When I rotate the pot, it makes a static/crackling noise.

AA batteries left in Canon PowerShot camera for about 6 months leaked. Camera shop clerk cleaned the contacts and the camera works, but he suggested using DeoxIT® D5 inside and let it drip out to remove the rest of the corrosion. He didn’t say that you have several products and so now I see I need to know which one to order.
Q: (18386)
I know DeoxIT® D-Series and DeoxIT® Gold are good to for cleaning anything with metal to metal contacts – buy the way, they are the best products, hands down! But what do I use to clean the potentiometers that are carbon? Also, many pots have both carbon and metal parts, what should I then use?
Q: (18383)
Do you have a flexible extension tube that stays bent when you form it? The straight only straw sometimes has to be bent in such a way that it takes two hands to get it where it has to go and you can’t get to the spray button.

Electronic locks not working, Help! We install and service many electronic locks and controllers, mostly on industrial and institutional applications, that are exposed to the elements and have a terrible time with oxidation and corrosion on contacts. It gets so bad in some areas (coastal locations or on marine equipment), the locks/equipment totally stops working. What do you recommend?
