Re: the stuff won't even clean my tea cup, let alone a radio chassis. 73 Bud W0HG
Bud wins! Good one! Still laughing! You-all have read my "sea story" about the old Gunny and his garden hose and that Collins gear. While it is a true story, I still have some concerns. You won't see me posting a you tube video of me and my garden hose and my prized Sherwood R-4C out in the backyard this spring giving a bath. #1 the VFO grease that is used in our beloved radios. The hot rinse cycle would not do your vfo's any favors. #2 the high humidity (100%) would put power transformers at risk. I am still a chicken, about as far as I would go is to use my electric toothbrush with a suitable cleaning compound and a little water on the brush to scrub up the upper deck of a radio. The underside of a the drake rigs is too busy with point to point wiring for scrubbing with a tooth brush. Time to be real and get honest with ourselves. If you want pristine collector grade appearance hire a professional and ante up.
