DeoxIT D100L-25C Precision Needle Applicator, More Than A Contact Cleaner, 25 mL, Pack of 1

Ive been using this stuff since the late 1800s in audio pots and switches. Audio guys have commented forever how this stuff lubes and quiets audio slider pots. My findings have always been equally as positive. I put a drop on the pots on my flight sim joystick. They are typically 10k, 90 deg ROM composition pots, doing the typical 5v thing to an A/D converter. They are often miniature pots, smaller traces, likely more prone to dirt/dust/bug poo. As expected, the drop of red stuff smoothed out the response very dramatically. What was a quarter to half volt spike with every movement of the pot became measurably zero spike. Smooth as a baby pots bottom. As smooth as any Hall Effect sensor curve. Heres the new use - I put a drop on the joysticks mechanical cams. Thats typically a machined and/or chrome surfaced cam and ride bearing affair with or without a center detent. I dont want oil or grease on these, they live in a desk mount joystick or in a set of flight pedals, constantly on the floor, being activated by the bottoms of the pilots shoes. I simply cleaned the factory supplied lithium/moly/bear fat grease off the cams and allowed one drop of DeOx to flow onto the cam bearing surface. The carrier disappears via magic pixies and apparently leaves the Business End part of the product on the metal surface. No dust collecting like with grease. The seemingly high price of the little bottle is not a factor. Man cave engineers will likely get 10+ years out of one of these bottles. Youre likely to change hobbies or die before you use up two bottles.

I use this to clean rotary switches on 30 year old VOM. This cleaner works perfectly and the mini control tip is a plus over the usual contact cleaner spray cans. Highly recommend this product!

Without a doubt, DeoxIT is by far the best product of its kind available. Ive used it many times to eliminate the noise in old potentiometers ... saving untold dollars in repair costs and probably saving lots of gear from the scrap heap since many of these were obsolete parts. THis particular supplier had a very competitive price and very prompt shipping.

Great stuff! It really does what it says in its advertising.

Great for electrical connections. Keeps corrosion to a minimum. Applicator is nice. One drop does most situations.

Works great ! I watched the tarnish disappear !

I use this for coax connections and for refurbishing my TV remote contacts. I like this stuff and its why I bought a big bottle of it. It needs very little and it goes a long ways. I just never want to be without it.

Good stuff. Excellent contact cleaner. Needle applicator very handy. Use it all the time for my vintage audio gear.

This is the only contact cleaner that removes corrosion and oxidation. The others only remove light surface dirt, which is rarely a real problem.

Does a great job cleaning speaker and earphone plugs. 1/8 and 1/4 inch types. Just put a few drops on a cloth and rub the connection area.
