[QUOTE="Tom Manchester, post: 98176, member: 82"] Re: deoxit on m7cl faders Don't do it! De-Oxit mixes with whatever dirt and gunk is already in the faders and turns it into mud. The faders start to track really poorly and become sporadic. Best solution is to use a combination of compressed air and vaccuum to try and clean the gunk out while it's dry. I tried cleaning the faders on my old LS9 with all sorts of Caig and alcohol products. Ended up replacing them all. When I did the post-mortem on the old faders I found all the ones I tried using Caig on had a layer of "gunk" on the wipers that was causing poor contact. The Gunk was lint and dirt mixed with all the chemicals I dumped in there. Edit: If you are SUPER careful you might try making a tiny brush or hook that you can coat with a *tiny* amount of caig fader lube and apply to the inside TOP of the faders. This is the underside of the metal box that encloses the fader. The trolley that has the wipers on it and is attached to the fader knob presses up against this part and could be causing some friction. [/QUOTE]
