Noooo... get the Fader cleaner and then the lube or grease to make it
smooth after the cleaning as they are when they first come out of the
factory. If you use DeoxIt on the faders it will likely just *short*
them out, because it is designed to be brushed on to things like noisy
audio cable connectors for better conductivity!
But, call Caig and get their expert advice/recommendation for your
particular scenerio... I'm just pointing a direction. :)
