Re: Not sandpaper!!!

BlueMagic is a VERY fine metal polish. There are others.

Use polish ONLY when straight isopropal and swab won't do the job.

ANY residue left behind is at least a sonic problem, and on HV tubes it can be dangerous.

Scratched pins do not make good contact, even when clean, and they re-oxidize quickly, as well.

Best,
Paul S
