57 customers mention3 positive54 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the leakage of the cleaning agent. They mention that it leaks all over and wastes a lot of product. The swing-up spray nozzle tends to leak and waste cleaner, and the spray head is dripping all over the place. Once the oily fluid leaks into your device, it's practically impossible to remove. The stuff dribbles out of the tube and if the potentiometer you want to clean needs to be cleaned, it would only dribble out. The batteries had leaked, and resulting gunk cemented the battery carrier.

"...The second time it blasted out like a rocket and sprayed all over the guitar, my desk and myself. Should be WAY easier to use." Read more

"...The stuff dribbled out of the tube and if the potentiometer you want to clean needs to be sprayed in an upward direction, it's a waste because it..." Read more

"...They are all wet and even have liquid in around the view screen, but that goes away after a while - bottom line is that this stuff cleaned all those..." Read more

"...Fluid dripped and ran off the bottom of the can and had to super glue the spray cap on, it kept falling off...." Read more

Fixed My Crackly Amp
I bought a used guitar amp with terrible crackling in the pots and jacks. I sprayed some of this and it fixed the issues almost immediately. I highly recommend this to all used & vintage equipment lovers as well as anyone who wants to take good care of their gear.
