Deoxit, which is carried by Radio Shack under their own label, will probably do a better job of dissolving grime and oxidation, and with less chance of unintentional destruction of innards.
- nodata 15y agoWhy? If it's a rebranded WD-40, why will that work? "unintentional destruction of innards" - can you give some examples? I've never had it destroy anything.
- Jimmie 15y agoDeoxit is different to WD40. Deoxit is a contact cleaner while WD40 is a lubricant. They work in nearly the same way but WD40 leaves residue which will build up over time while deoxit completely evaporates. WD40 will work but I wouldn't use it on anything I want to pass on to my children. I've also heard some second hand horror stories of WD40 penetrating old IC casings and destroying them but I can't confirm them myself.
