Thanks, Mr. White,
Are you saying I should also put a dab of Naolox on the battery ends, as well as the two screwheads? Hope I'm not annoying anyone - I just want to do everything right to make my Zini last forever and stay as beautiful as possible....
I use DeoxIT Pro Gold; I like the pen-version because it fits in the Mini-Zenesis Case, and is not as messy as Naolox (It's clear/yellowish liquid and with the pen version is perfect for hitting the screws and battery ends with no spillage and mess. Most of it evaporates within 2-3 minutes and the residual is an invisible layer that prevents further oxidation. I used to use it often to remove and prevent oxidation from inputs, outputs, speakers connections, & especially vacuum tube sockets in tube preamps and PP/SET Tube amplifiers because they get pretty oxidized from using N.O.S. (New/Never been used, but old stock) vacuum tubes.
DeoxIT® Gold G-Series - Contact Enhancer, Conditioner & Protector
(formerly ProGold)
DeoxIT® Gold (formerly ProGold), is a unique conditioning solution that improves conductivity and provides long-lasting protection on gold, base metals and other precious metal contacts and connections (gold, silver, rhodium, copper, bronze, nickel, etc.).
Use on plated connectors, contacts and metal surfaces for maximum performance and protection.
Recommended for critical applications where only slight cleaning action is necessary. If the surface looks clean, applying DeoxIT D-Series contact cleaner first is usually not necessary. DeoxIT® Gold is designed to dissolve small amounts of oxidation. Apply DeoxIT® Gold after DeoxIT® D-Series contact cleaner on plated metal surfaces, except where noted with DeoxIT® Shield S-Series below. The more critical the connection or part, especially low current applications, DeoxIT® Gold should be the final step.
For reference, DeoxIT® Gold has approximately 0.5% cleaning action.
KEY FEATURES:
Improves Conductivity

Protects Base Metals from Oxidation
Prevents Dendrite and Fretting Corrosion
Forms Protective Anti-Tarnishing Layer
