Switch Antenna Treatment

I'm using an outside antenna switching network to switch antennas at my ham station. The relays need to be cleaned, so which of your products would do the job best?

Thanks

We recommend the following:

1. Apply DeoxIT® (D5S-6) spray to the surface. If it's particularly dirty (heavily oxidized), leave the solution on overnight.

2. The following morning, remove the contaminants lifted by the DeoxIT® with a lint free swab or cloth and use "canned" (compressed) air if necessary. Repeat process, if the surface is still oxidized. Finish with a couple of short bursts of DeoxIT®.

4. At that point, apply DeoxIT® Grease L260 (lithium based) or M260 (mineral based) to insulate the surface.

For details on the differences between lithium and mineral based greases, please select "DeoxIT Grease TYPE L260 & M260 Greases" to review your options at www.caig.com.
