Has anyone done a routine cleaning of their receiver?


Recommended Posts

I did research and found the DeOxit D5 spray works. Guitar Center is the only store that seemed to carry it, it was only like 10 bucks for a decent size can too. The internet says Radio Shack has the D5 and gold end spray as well by Caig but the ones I visited did not have it in stock but will try to sell you electronic cleaner (radio shack brand) DON'T BUY IT! 

Use the real stuff.

I went through my entire receiver with a fine-toothed comb (figure of speech). I used DeOxit Red for all pots and switches, then went back through with gold. Not only did it make the receiver sound great, it actually took it from non-working to working. As far as simply cleaning out dustbunnies, I typically use compressed air.
