I think ProGold is their 'sealant' formula that protects for a few years (unless you're unplugging and replugging a lot) which is very conductive and remains so...can be used on any metallurgy. I use that and Deoxit D5 first to clean. The D5 is the best cleaner I've ever tried. Their both-in-one cleaner/sealant formulas don't seem to clean nearly as well. A little #0000 steel wool on contact surfaces first can work well, too...a bit of a pain, but it does seem to help with the sound a bit sometimes.
Which Caig?
Hi All,
I want to clean up my RCA and XLR connectors and have looked at Caig solutions. The problem is there are tons of Caig products - Deoxit Gold G100L, Deoxit D5, Gold G5, Gold GX5 etc. My RCAs are not badly oxidized. Which Caig should I use?
Also, I would prefer to use the Signet RCA cleaning tool for RCA. But for XLR connectors, what tool do you use with Caig to apply and clean? I am not sure if the Mobile Fidelity - Connector Cleaning Brush can be used for this purpose.
Please advise. Thanks!
