cleaning a chassis

hi guys whas the best thing to use to clean and degrease a chassis i need a aresol can to spray on the air capacitor and chassis that drys fast Any suggestions

You can get air in a aerosol can . What do you mean by air capacitor ? Are you saying tuning capacitor
Only thing i can think of to clean one fast and drys real fast is carb cleaner. It drys fast so not to melt plastic ect.

yes thats what i meant tuning cap i got some tuner cleaner from radio shack messed upradio wont recieve nothing at first after spraying that crap i tried a little carb cleaner now it will recieve by puting my finger on the loop antenna any more ideas!!!

What i would do turn upside down let dry awhile.
Blow it out with some dry air . Clean with good dry cloth
then see . Could have got some of the trimmers wet.
I would set it in the sun awhile or put a fan on it.

If your tuning condenser is wide enough between the fins . Use a small finger nail file the cardboard type. If not use
fine sandpaper and clean them real good . If you have it working touching the loop antenna try a long wire on it.
What type of set is it.

its a howard 901-A im letting it dry some more before trying it

I looked at the schematic at nostalgia air your set designed for loop or external antenna. Give external a try.

ya i put up a longwire it recieves good now thanks for the info
