Treated my interconnects with Deoxit D5 today

To the OP, I would advise cleaning all of the caig stuff off of everywhere you put it with isopropyl alcohol. Most likely you inadvertantly used too much and have created a mildly conductive path between signal and ground. Very thorough cleaning with alcohol and wipes/buds & compressed air will restore your system. Then be a good boy and don’t do it again.. ;)
I too learnt the hard way, lol..
This stuff should be supplied in small glass bottles, with a very small brush or swab, not a flippin aerosol that just blasts it everywhere. Idiots.

Caig 'juice' comes in several forms. A small pen like device, A 5% spray. A 5% liquid bottle, A 100% liquid bottle I own the Green, Red and Gold in the 100% bottle/brush form.

Good to know that elizabeth, from memory we could only find spray can here.. Thanks for the info..

As Elizabeth, I prefer the 100% solution in a small bottle with an applicator brush. Caig offers a kit (K-DG100L-2DB) that contains a 7.4mL bottle each of both the Red and Gold cleaner (along with brushes and cloths) that Markertek sells for $25.99, the best price I found.

At any rate, the former splendor of my system has now returned and I am hearing just what I heard before my connection-cleaning foray. Go figure. Erik was exactly right. Thanks again for the input from you wise fellows.

Thanks for the kind words. :)


This has happened to me too. Not because I cleaned the connections, but because I turned everything off.


Best,
