What are you guys using for penetrates ,cleaners ,degreaser , I'm particularly interested in corrosion cleaners let's say lightbulb socket anything that works?
I used to clean bulb sockets, plugs and contacts with a product called "Corrosion Gone" now I use Vinegar or a dilute Citric Acid solution After acid treatment acid residue must be washed off with a very dilute solution of baking soda, A Citric flush wil also clear blocked radiators and heater matrix.
For cleaning very delicated Hot Film MAF's I have discovered Foaming Circuit Board Cleaner which s fairly cheap and very effective.
For rusted threaded parts Acetone mixed with a little engine oil or "Duck Oil" (similar to WD40) makes a great penetrating fluid.
For anti-seize compound I uses one that contains stainless steel rather than copper it isn't cheap but is very effective especially on alloy wheels it however much messier to use than the copper based products.
For taking oily finger marks off car paint work and steering wheels I use am aerosol of furniture polish.
