I use Deoxit D5. I obtained it at my local audio shop, a gem of a private one, but a Google search revealed it available all over the web. There are much more expensive formulations from CAIG, but D5 has never let me down.

The detail and cleanup master there, Don Baker, suggests cleaning while watching TV. Before you know it, all the RCA females on a complex amp or receiver are like new and you are unaware of having done any work.

Try local good quality outlets of TV and Home theater gear. They may carry it. Don't forget electronics shops if there are any left in your area.

I started using Caig's Cramolin Red & Blue in the early 80's, touted in "The Audio Amateur" magazine.
It was VERY effective.
I use the D5 for general defunking, the Faderlube for serious flushing and for use on "cermet" type pots ( for which it is made ), and the Gold for preserving switch contacts.

IMO, they are the Cat's Pajamas.

Beware of the shamelessly named "Deox ID", destroyer of gear. Crapola.
