 similar to this:

 There seems to be almost nothing on the web about what the Caig stuff
 actually is. Materials safety data sheet lists ingredients as 'trade 
secret'

 Reasonable discussion of the Stabilant stuff in patent #4696832 
For a lot of purposes I like Caig DeoxIT. It's definitely better
than the old "tuner cleaners" in terms of being more than a short-term
fix. There's a long catalog of Caig products and I don't think there
are as many actual applications as they have product variants :-).

Hi
I will again give a pitch for what I've used. I have a TV that the turret 
contact
that were silver plated had warn out, leaving just brass. This was more
than 10 years ago. I tried the tuner cleaners but that would only last less
than a week. I then tried a little DC#4 silicon grease.
To make a long story short, I'm still using that TV today although I only 
tend
to watch once a week now. I did watch most every night for some time.
Now if I could only find the intermittent in the vertical drive. I wiggle 
things
and it comes right back.
