About Contact Cleaners, Label Removers & Lubricants
Cleaning and maintenance is the unglamorous shelf that keeps touring, hire and install kit working and looking right: cleaner for connectors and contacts, grease for seals and moving parts, and label removers that lift old freight and venue labels from cases and racks.
The range covers Kontakt Chemie Kontakt IPA Isopropanol Cleaner in a 200ml aerosol, Kontakt Chemie Label Off 50 Adhesive Label Remover in a 200ml aerosol, Kontakt Chemie Silicone Grease in a 50g tube, WD-40 Multi-Use Product Original in a 100ml spray can, and Flightcase Juice Label Cleaning Solution in 750ml and 5 Litres.
Pick by job. Isopropyl alcohol evaporates cleanly, so it suits connector contacts and wiping surfaces before new labels or tape go on. Silicone grease, sold as lubricating and insulating, is for seals and parts that need a protective film. WD-40 is the general mechanical spray for catches, hinges and castors. For labels, Label Off 50 is the aerosol for spot jobs, while Flightcase Juice in 750ml goes in the workbox and the 5 Litres refills it for a warehouse prepping cases in bulk.

Cleaning & Maintenance FAQs
Should I use WD-40 or IPA on connectors? For cleaning contacts, isopropyl alcohol is the usual choice because it evaporates without leaving a film. WD-40 is better kept for mechanical jobs such as hinges, catches and castors.
Which label remover suits flight cases? Flightcase Juice Label Cleaning Solution is made for lifting labels from cases, in 750ml or 5 Litres, and Kontakt Chemie Label Off 50 is a 200ml aerosol for quicker spot jobs. Test any remover on a small area of the finish first.
