Cool. That's the ticket. (Although I don't recall them costing
over $20 !) I will Google around and see what comes up not that you
confirm their usefulness.
Regarding exercising pots... I learned long ago from my collection of
old AM radios, that I can usually avoid spraying loads of contact
cleaner in the controls if I just exercise them all the way up-and-down
several times, and then I don't get that awful "scrauntch" sound when I
turn them on. You know the sound. So I just rotate the posts several
times through their entire course before I plug them in, and that
usually cures it. Only occasionally do I need to use any contact
spritz, which I prefer not to use if possible. No reason other than
the KISS method.
Thanks for the uptake on burnishing tools.
