Actually, you've uncovered my secret.  I bought a 55 gallon drum of 
DeOxit.  I keep an old bathtub out in the shed and when I get a synth 
in for repair, I fill the tub with DeOxit and let the synth soak in 
it overnight.  That way, I get the bus bars, j-wires, pots, sliders, 
and switches clean at the same time.  Next morning, I pop the synth 
out, let it air-dry for a few hours and it's good as new.  Since 
DeOxit doesn't harm delicate plastics or rubber and leaves no 
residue, it's the perfect one-stop cleaning solution.
