This stuff is amazing

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 2, 2023

Size: 5 oz.Style: CleanerVerified Purchase

Use it on all your pots and electrical connections for your guitars and amps.
I recently purchased a used stratocaster guitar from guitar center and when it arrived, all connections were spotty, would sometimes connect sporadically, sometimes totally dead signals, all functions seemed to switch to other pickups when selected, crackle noisy pots, popping and clicking noises through amp.....just a total mess. Took it back to the local store to have a look at it and they said just return it, it's not worth looking at. It was a one of a kind guitar with everything I wanted so I decided to keep it after a discount and just replace all the electronics. Before I did, I decided to open the guitar up and spray this in all the pots and switches, work them in and did a 2nd spray and worked it in some more. Voila, it worked, there was nothing wrong with the guitar at all, all functions began working again, no more noise or static, all connections connected and after 2 days, this lubricant spray fixed everything. I couldn't be more happy.

Great for Cleaning Volume, Tone and Fader Controls

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 28, 2023

Size: 5 oz.Style: CleanerVerified Purchase

My record turntable speed control wasn't locking the speed and the turntable would speed up and slow down ever so slightly to make listening to what was being played unbearable.
There is a control (a variable resistor) on the front and perhaps it just needed cleaning. I thought getting a few squirts of DeoxIt into it and moving the control back and forth would hopefully fix the problem. It did!

For those wondering what a variable resistor is one use is as a volume control.
If you have an amp that makes a crackle sound when you turn it up or down you have a dirty variable resistor (sometimes called a potentiometer) and if you can get to inside of the device and spay into a crack or hole on the control and turn the control back and forth several times while doing so this will fix the distorted sound.
My photo shows a variable resistor removed for detail but you can spray and clean while it's attached to the board.

It will also work great cleaning the long sliding faders on a mixing board and you might be able to spray into the slider slots without opening up the mixer.

Well worth having a can in one's electronic repair arsenal.

Will fix volume and tone pots for guitars and amps!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 1, 2023

Size: 5 oz.Style: CleanerVerified Purchase

I had a 30 year old guitar and amp that I haven't used in a while. They both had issues with volume and tone. I sprayed these in the back holes of the potentiometers, moved them back and forth a couple dozen times, and did each one about three times each. I was amazed at the improvement of sound and tone just by cleaning my dirty pots. Great product!

Used to restore a 20+ year old Mackie Mixer - works great.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 28, 2023

Size: 5 oz.Style: CleanerVerified Purchase

I have an old Mackie mixer that I wanted to keep using, but it had static on all of the controls -- fade, pan, gain. The hardest part (no fault of this product) was getting it all apart, but once it was I simply sprayed this in each potentiometer while moving it back and forth. It was also an amazing lubricant as the faders are now much easier to use (I previously also couldn't feel the detent at top center but now I can).

No more static, works great and didn't even take half the can. This will bring old electronics back to life in a hurry with a little time and elbow grease. Much cheaper than buying a new mixer.

The right stuff

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 26, 2023

Size: 5 oz.Style: CleanerVerified Purchase

What can I say, it is DeoxIT! Had to replenish my supply. Use it in my electric guitar switches and pots when they quit working or sound scratchy. Use it on my amplifiers and pedals for scratchy sounding pots which become smooth and quiet. A couple shots in cable jacks and working a plug in an out fixes most noisy jacks getting out the small bits of dust in the contacts. Also helpful in lots of other household battery contacts and switches to often restore function that would otherwise require replacement. Not some kind of magic, just knocks the crude out of where it should not be and restores some lube.

Amazing stuff! We call it "Technician in a Can".

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 7, 2013

Size: 5 oz.Style: CleanerVerified Purchase

I've used one form or another of this product since the mid '70s and it's fantastic.

I'd found out about it from a magazine back then called Audio Amateur and at that time, the similar product was called Cramolin. As with DeoxIT, it came in a red and a blue variety. The blue is/was a preservative for newly manufactured contacts and the red is/was a cleaner and preservative. Theoretically, the blue may provide longer/better protection while the red is better for cleaning and restoring contacts which are already oxidized.

You can clean contacts with the red, then remove it, then treat with the blue to get the best protection of already oxidized contacts, but in practice, the red alone works so well that it's extremely effective to simply clean and treat the contacts in one step using only the red. As a result, I use about one can of blue for every ten or more cans of the red. For most uses, most folks only need the red (D) variety. I don't want that to make it sound like I go through cans and cans of the stuff, but since I work in the electronics field, I do use a lot more than most people.

As has been mentioned in several other reviews, you need very little of it to do most jobs. A single can will last a very long time even for someone who is constantly working on a lot of equipment.

After finding out how well it worked on audio connections and potentiometers, I introduced the folks at the electronics company where I worked to it. All of the technicians and engineers were amazed and it soon became a staple. We designed, manufactured, installed, and serviced various telemetry and process control equipment. A lot of this gear as well as equipment made by others that we were called upon to service was in areas with corrosive atmospheres like oilfield, refinery, water/wastewater treatment, laboratory, and other locations where hydrogen sulfide, chlorine, hydrochloric acid fumes, etc., are present, leading to lots of contact-related problems.

It's been extremely effective over these many years, and although the name and formula has changed since the "Cramolin" days, the new stuff seems to still be very good.

I've also used it on very high voltage connectors and one of the amazing properties of it is that while it improves contact integrity and lowers contact resistance dramatically, it does not break down and cause leakage or flashover when used on high voltage systems. I've used it for years on photomultiplier tube and Geiger tube devices (radiation survey and monitoring equipment), and never had any problems with it. These systems usually operate with bias voltages between 900 and 1500 Volts, but sometimes run up to 2500V.

A fantastic example of how it works was something we did many years ago where we had a batch of very old thermal self-resetting circuit breaker devices in a system. The problem was that they had silver contacts. Silver itself is the best conductor of all elements, but it is very reactive and oxidizes (tarnishes) very easily. These devices were sealed and "non-repairable". But their contact resistance was unacceptably high.

I mixed a solution of Cramolin Red and a solvent (probably Freon TF back in those days), put it in a glass jar, and simply dropped these breakers into it and kept them submerged until the bubbles stopped coming out to make sure they were totally flooded with the solution. We then took them out, letting the fluid run back out of them, and then rapped them on a desk a dozen times or so to make the contacts inside "jiggle" a bit. That was enough to let the Cramolin work its way between the closed contacts.

Measuring a number of these breakers before and after the treatment, the resistances started out between 100 and 200 milliohms. After treating them, the typical resistance went down to around 6 milliohms! The high current and low voltage these devices needed to carry meant that the voltage drops across them had been unacceptably high, but post-treatment, they operated beautifully. And stayed that way for years.

Various other contacts which would heat up and cause other problems prior to treatment operated cool and with extremely low voltage drops after treatment.

I've personally "repaired" countless potentiometers, switches, and various connectors over the years with this stuff.

We call it "Technician in a Can", and it lives up to that name. I pre-treat a LOT of contacts prior to crimping them onto their wires, and it lowers the mating forces and improves the reliability of virtually any connector.

It truly is special stuff. It's indispensable for technicians, manufacturers, audiophiles, etc. If I had a 55 gallon drum of it, I could take entire pre-amps and other audio gear and dunk it to fix all of the bad switch contacts and pots in one quick operation. :)

The only thing that's a minor issue is that as with any contact cleaner that has (or is nothing but) a solvent, it will flush away the viscous goo that's often used to make a potentiometer have a "silky" feel to it when rotating. So when you're treating a pot, it's best to try not to allow any to get to the shaft/bushing part of the pot if you want to preserve the grease that's in that annulus.

But it often totally fixes a "scratchy" pot by simply getting it on the resistive pad and then running the pot back and forth a dozen times or so.

As with so many things, for some reason, manufacturers just love to make pot wipers with silver plating. Bad idea! But all too common. Once that wiper tarnishes, the pot will sound awful since silver oxide is an insulator. The DeoxIT usually allows that oxide layer to be removed by simply rotating the pot a dozen times or so, and then it coats the wiper and the resistive element, preventing future problems and leaving the pot working/sounding excellent.

Anyhow, all I can say is that this product has served me extremely well for nearly 40 years, and I highly recommend it.

Fixed my Amplifier Scratchy Jumping Volume and Tone Defeat

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 27, 2022

Size: 5 oz.Style: CleanerVerified Purchase

Fixed an arcing jumping Nakamichi AV-10 amplifier. I opened up the amp and sprayed the volume control sections and turned back and forth.

I couldn't get to the loudness and tone defeat buttons so placed the amp on its end sprayed Deoxit D5 in the little gap of the button like in the photos. Pressed in and out for 2 to 3 minutes and hey presto......no more crackles pops and sound randomly going from the left to right channels.

I would highly recomend. I am just hoping the result lasts.

Number one for easily cleaning electrical contacts

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 22, 2016

Size: 5 oz.Style: CleanerVerified Purchase

After researching online I bought a can of Deoxit to renovate an old mixer desk that had noisy pots and sliders (you'd get a cracking through the speakers when making adjustments). The accompanying straw is essential for getting the contact cleaner in the right place. Problem solved.

Then I tried it on an old record player that had problems keeping accurate pitch. A couple of squirts of Deoxit in the pitch pot, a minut or so of turning the dials from max to min and the years of build up were gone. Both 33 & 45rpm speeds are accurate again and the turntable runs like a dream.

Would be better if they did a half size can of Deoxit, that was also half the price, but at least it means you'll never run out.

It fixed all my crackles...

This stuff is really good. Yes, it's expensive but it works .
My Ric bass output jacks were intermittently crackling and I'd tried several contact cleaning solutions with no real improvement. I was dreading having to replace the switching jacks. Gave them a skoosh of Deoxit and some in-out with a Krackle Killer and that fixed it.
Similar thing with a friend's Hohner bass where it also fixed crackly pots.
Did all my pedal ins and outs and all my amp in and Fx loops for good measure.
Get some, treat it like gold... Recommended.
