Well, that's why I'm thinking of just staying with canned air.
Besides, you never know what the true quality of the Radio Shack stuff will
be anyway.

I haven't had that problem either, I was told once though to stay clear of
the contact cleaners. How true it is I don't know but I'm told they have a
tendency to be a quick fix, but they can really deteriate the interior of
the control you spray and the next time you lose it, it's for good. Not sure
how true that is generally, I can say it did happen to me once but I can't
say if that was going to do that or not anyway and I've never tried the
stuff since.
