Getting really tired of taking the potentiometer out to clean and get rid of
the noise in
the volume control. Cleaning lasts for about a month and then noise
returns.

Any ideas on how to stop the volume from getting noisy? Dielectric grease
maybe?

(fwiw, control is no longer made to fit (stacked-case design) so that's not
an option)

Rumor has it that Radio Shack is stocking Caig Deoxit and more.

If changing is not an option then try checking the slider pressure on the
track (if accessible) as it may be too weak.

I would try the Caig products first. Bending stuff could have a permanent
negative effect. When I was working in the broadcasting and electronics mfg
industries, we used the Caig products a lot. They're definitely worthwhile,
and beats the heck out of those Freon-based and/or silicon-oil-based
products. Caig has a whole line of cleaners, lubricants, de-oxidizers, etc.,
and they really do work (and have a lasting effect). And no, I don't work
for Caig. :-)

For pots the appropriate product is Cailube.
