TIP: Aerosol contact cleaners can spray cold, and can potentially crack a guitar's finish. Always protect the finish with a cloth when cleaning pots and switches.

When cleaning CTS brand pots, use DeoxIT with the Pot Cleaning Cap. This time-saving attachment lets you keep control pots clean and noise-free, without extracting them from your guitar or amp.

Works like a dream!

I have a Hamer Standard that I hadn't played in awhile. Took it out of the case, and the volume pots were awful. I couldn't get sound except for scratching. I sprayed some Deox-it in both pots and worked them back and forth, all of the noise left and they are smooth as silk. Anyone who owns an electric guitar needs to have a can of this stuff! An outstanding product!

Deoxit does the job

I use Deoxit all the time. I specialize in fixing up old cheap guitars that almost always have noisy pots. A few quick shots with this stuff and they come back to life. I use it on amps too. Here is an old Hagstrom 1 that came to life once the pots were cleaned.

Contact Cleaner

I have purchased other contact cleaners and all contact cleaners are not made the same and you get what you pay for. The DeoxIT does the job very well, I am very happy with it and I make sure I always have it on hand in my guitar shop.

Amazing product

I bought an old, used audio mixer. Several pots were VERY noisy and several channels worked intermittently. Cleaned all XLR inputs with Deoxit and shot it down the shafts on the noisy pots. After just a few turns of the pots, I could actually FEEL them turning easier.

When I powered it up, everything worked perfectly!! Absolutely amazing!!

Great Stuff

I found the same product in an electronic store, and the geek told me it was the best on the market. I used it and I agree. Great stuff.

Love this stuff.

Saves crackly pots and dirty jacks, a must have in the shop, on the road, or in the studio.

Deoxit Products Rule The Road

I've been out on the road with a number of bands and would not leave home without my Caig cleaners and lubes . I might as well forget to pack duct tape , super glue and pipettes ! Don't get to thinkin' you can make it with just this "One Shot" of good stuff and go ! You need to read up on this line of products and get the other items StewMac has for you too ! If you're not sure what to get , then contact them and they can set you straight . I've been buggin' these people for 20 years ! They always come thru !

Worth every penny

Pricey, sure... but worth every penny. One can will last you a long long time. Works well, a couple of short blasts cleaned up some of the noisiest pots.
