I didn't catch the beginning of this thread, but I've been using Caig Labs
products for a couple of decades, and there is probably no better line of
contact treatment products anywhere (although there have been some issues of
ownership of the name Cramolin, which Caig has stopped using).
As William N points out, damaged contacts aren't recoverable by applying
even the best of "miracle in a can" products.
The DeoxIt products are great for cleaning contacts that are in undamaged
condition, to help prevent (any) contacts from being damaged as a result of
oxidation.. increased resistance and heat.

hate to tell you this though you may already lknow it, but if hte contacts
are welded or pitted, all the deoxit in the world won't fix them -that's
what these little files are for - deoxit (and similar products) remove
oxide layers, but not pitting or mechanical distortions of any kind
DoN.
The strip in the end of the pen - looks a bit like what we used to call
"microscrub". We used it in a telco worked for to clean relay contacts.-
