Anyone here used Caig Deoxit AxeWipes?

Sign in to disble this ad
I just re-ordered some Caig's Deoxit spray for my electronics bench, and I saw they have a product called "AxeWipes" which is small handi-wipes saturated with some formulation of corrosion cleaners and lubricants designed specifically for cleaning guitar strings. So I ordered some, what the heck.

Do any of you have experience with these?

Interesting, please report back on their effectiveness. Hopefully you've got some dead rounds to revive on something

I have a guitarist friend who swears by them. He used to have serious problems keeping strings on his guitar because of the acid (or whatever) from his fingers, and now his strings last much longer. I use them to lift the grime off the fretboard, and they work great for that. Slightly oily, but not excessively so.

You've had four years to test it... what were the results?
