Help using Caig cleaning products

I have just purchased Deoxit, Pro Gold, PreservIT, and CaiLube. Can anyone give me advice regarding using these products on my system. Any cautions? My system is as follows: Rega P2, AH! Njoe Tjoeb 4000, ARC SP9MKII, ARC VT60, Vandersteen 2ce Signatures, Tara Labs RSC Axiom interconnects, Audioquest GR8 speaker cables. Thanks for any assistance that you can offer.

CAUTION! Be sure to use Pro-Gold X (extended temperature) for your tube pins and sockets. Don't use the regular Pro-Gold for this application.

Tvad, there has been a change in the ProGold product specs. According to their website:

"The ProGold GxL ® product line has been transitioned into the ProGold G100L ® line.

(Temperature Range, -45 C (-49 F) to +310 C (590 F)

If you have a specification written into your procedures for the ProGold GxL ®, and need to
re-certify the new ProGold G100L ®, we do have limited supplies of GxL at this time.
Please contact Susan Prenatt for information, ssp@caig.com or 800/CAIG-123 x112."
******************************

The old specs were:

ProGold G5 (-34 C to +200 C)
ProGold G5x (-45 C to +400 C)

My apologies that I was unaware of the Pro-Gold product line changes. You will be fine using their new product on your tube pins...but again, use VERY sparingly!
