I do the same as Gary....apply small amounts to the pins...easier to see
how much you are applying...rather than putting it down the sockets.

I rarely use Deoxit in tube sockets unless I have reason to believe
the sockets have oxidized and are causing issues. If you do use it in
tube sockets its best to dip a round toothpick in Deoxit and insert
that into the individual sockets, giving it several turns. I have also
applied Deoxit directly to the tube pins themselves with a cotton swab
then installed the tube in/out of the socket several times. I have
never had a problem in almost 20 years of using Deoxit. You have to be
careful in high impendence circuits involving tube sockets, you'll
create shorts.
