Product Description

CAIG DeoxIT D5S-6-LMH, Deoxidizer/Rejuvenator/Lubricant/Protectant
WHY is DeoxIT Unique? Ever wonder why electronic or electrical devices have glitches, intermittents or data errors, or wonder how you can prevent this from happening.
ANSWER: Most of the time it is caused by ONE of the thousands of metal connections in the system or device. All electronic connections deteriorate which cause reduced performance or perhaps total failure. Simple contact “cleaners” wash away dirt, dust, and grime, but prove ineffective at removing oxidation and surface sulfides. These tough contaminants actually attach to and become an integral part of the contact metal. This issue causes increased unnecessary service calls for covered repairs that could have been prevented, translating into literally millions of dollars of lost revenue for service organizations. The only true method of eliminating oxidation and surface sulfides is by chemical action and reaction. This is one aspect separating DeoxIT products from all other products, putting it in a class by itself. SOLUTION: DeoxIT D-Series

5.0 out of 5 stars The spray nozzle/tube is useless but the product is good
I picked up a little pack of plastic tubes with different size needle/drip tube attachments, and I just spray the Deoxit into the bottle and apply it from there. Most of the time I'm just dripping a little into sockets or hard to reach spots anyway and this application method works far better. I don't need to douse large areas.
So far I've used this to lubricate/clean up some old IC sockets and in its most helpful use to date, I've cleaned a few sticky keyboard keys and some stubborn remote control buttons (getting a little bit of this into the membrane contacts). I cleaned things first with some alcohol and then followed up with the Deoxit to make sure there was good electrical contact and it's really been working well for that.
For some applications I'd use dielectric grease instead, like if I'm trying to prevent water intrusion or whatever, but for precise things like this where you don't want or need the greasy residue which can also attract and stick dust/debris, deoxit is the way to go. Gives things a light coating and keeps ICs moving in/out of sockets and helps with other moving parts like the keyswitches and won't gum things up.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's expensive, but it will last a long time.
