Do you dismantle a radio before cleaning?
Combine one teaspoon of mild dishwashing detergent to one gallon of water (0.5% solution). 2. Apply the solution sparingly with a stiff, non-metallic, short-bristled brush, making sure excess detergent does not get entrapped near the connectors, controls or crevices. Dry the radio thoroughly with a soft, lint-free cloth. 3. Clean battery contacts with a lint-free cloth to remove dirt or grease.
