Samba Pa Ti Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 heylo, i was searching on the forums and couldnt find anything about noisey pots (im sure somthings posted here but nothing came up when i searched, so if there is any threads could somone please link me to them if they know of one about the same subject. now, i have a lot of old pots removed from guitars (usually if i fix somthing for somone if it has bad pots il just put new ones in and dump the old crap, is there a way to repair these pots ? i have the time to go through them all and test them, but what is the best method to get the pots back working without much noise ? ive read on other sites about spraying wd40 inside but i dont see how that would help (does it clean the wiper, or whatever is inside the pot ?) again any help appreciated here, i worded this thread so that it would come up in a search.

Bertbart Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 WD-40 works for me even better than the spray contact cleaner sold at electronic stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
