I might also suggest when cleaning chassis I always use masking tape on the tube sockets to keep any liquid out of them. The construction of those sockets lends itself well to liquid working its way between the wafers. A real no-no especially on the rectifier with HV AC. I have smoked a couple sockets. Naval jelly will guarantee smoke if it gets inside.
