Okay, so now the wire is clean and shiny. What about the ceramic form on
which the coil is wound? Isn't there now going to be a residue of silver
oxide or other possibly conductive crud left between the turns of the coil?
I would think that you would at least want to rinse the ceramic form
off, with something that will not re-oxidize the silver. Maybe alcohol?
Even so, some of the white ceramics used in Johnson inductors and
capacitors is not glazed and have a sort of rough surface. I wonder if
even after a good rinse there would still be conductive residue remaining.
