What cleaner to use
#4

I could use some pointers on where exactly to apply cleaners, and where to follow up (or not) with lube. For example, the variable capacitors; do you spray the plates, shaft, and bearings liberally with cleaner? Followed by lube on the shaft ends? How about pots. Cleaner only? Yeah, I'm dense. It took me years to master copy and paste, and I still don't comprehend "cut." And my brother is a programmer! Wish someone would write "Radio Resto for Dummies" but the trial lawyers would have a feeding frenzy.
