A member at a club I used to belong with came up with this formula:
<span class=''msg''><font size=''2''>''Jim Quinn's Mix''
5 cups water
1 cup alcohol (91% isopropyl or stove alcohol)
1/2 cup ammonia
2 tsp detergent
I carry a little two ounce spray bottle in my flight box (a recycled CA accelerator bottle). I refill from a two liter plastic bottle. I have used this for more than a decade on gas and glow models with no ill effects. I use Parson's Sudsy Household Ammonia and Dawn detergent.</font></span>
Hey, wait just a cotton pickin minute....Quinn flies electric and they don't need no stinkin cleanin
After you shake the burnt watts of your model, you still have to clean the electrics (twice per year). So this stuff will be handy. I just use top Job (Mr Clean) diluted in warm water with my gas models, and also the electric ones when the field is wet, or moist (we have grass).
So, contrary to public belief, electrics need cleaning. Slimeless, but still cleaning...
