In a long thread by P.F. Vaughan about modifying the Bush DAC90A, mention was made of Decarbonising paxolin panels such as the tagboard which, in this model, holds the mains dropper and other large resistors, but no mention is made of how to do this. Presumably some dry cleaning agent which neutralises/removes carbon without damaging the SRBP of which the board is made is used, but can anyone enlighten me as to what to use for this job?
