What cleaner to use
#1

I've read a bunch of references recommending Deoxit for cleaning the contacts on old equipment. I asked for this product at a well stocked locally owned hardware store
that always has everything I ever ask for but in this case I came out empty handed. They recommend I use a product called QD Contact Cleaner. It's a quick drying zero residu,e plastic safe spray can containing
n-hexane, methanol, Hexane isomers and some other solvents. Does this sound like what I should be using? Told you I would have a bunch of questions.
