For those of you that have circuit boards in your amp, this is a better (IMHO) cleaner to use. It has less potential of "lifting" small tracings or leaving a residue mess on amp that have their tubes connected directly to the board (a terrible idea, but I know many new amps have this feature --- sockets should be separated and connected to the metal chassis).

Got the tip from guys that have newer BIG audio amps, which almost always run circuit boards (most populated with IC chips).

Do you use "KF F2" ? --> clean and lubricate.

Tis-san, never tried that product. I've used a LOT in the last 20 years. But, CAIG De-Oxit (D5) has been my favorite. I only have D5, the new NOFLASH, & LPS 2 in my tool box. Heavier lubricants are in the garage. And K-Y... oh never mind! :lol:

I already used KF when I started to work in the beginning of '80 and sometimes now (because everything become and become by digital control), It's really a good "cleaner" for potentiomers when there are.

Actually, I only use it to clean-up potentiometers when needed. To clean up PCB (soldering residus) I use another product (as I'm not at work, I can't give you the réference).
