Re: solvent cleaners

For Sharp primaries I have had success with cleaning the metal housings with glass cleaner.

For the grid, I'll lay down two sheets of clean paper, and lay the grid on top. I'll use a toothbrush and glass cleaner, brushing in the direction of the fine threads of the grid, both sides. I'll dry it with a fine weave towel, wiping in the direction of those fine threads again. If it's not clean I'll repeat until it is, then with a clean dry toothbrush brush away any fuzzies, both sides.

For the sawtooth I'll use a Q-tip with just a little glass cleaner, then brush away any fuzzies with the clean dry toothbrush.

I must confess I don't miss scorotrons much, squinting at the damn thing trying to get every microscopic bit of lint. =^..^=

Re: solvent cleaners

my 2 cents:
Burned toner with aceton, if it really nasty then Super Kromofag (paint stripper)
For rubber stuff there is Protegum, better than anything I used.
General stuff with window cleaner or tehnical alcohol (90% proof)
Sensitive stuff, like LEDs, with isopropyl alcohol.

Re: solvent cleaners

I just carry alcohol, water/soap and a harsh "belt cleaner", I dont know of, or care about any magic bullet cleaner. If the company supplies can't do the job, the part needs to be replaced.

I felt only alcohol worked,

and soap I tried, no matter use,

don't know why.
