DeoxIT F5 FaderLube Spray
This specialized cleaner is formulated specifically for carbon-track potentiometers. It removes surface oxidation and provides a micro-lubricant layer that prevents future friction-induced wear, restoring the electrical continuity between the wiper and the resistive element without stripping the original damping grease.

Alpha 16mm B100K Potentiometer
Used for Volume and Tone controls, this component replaces a physically worn or pitted resistive track. If cleaning fails to resolve noise, the mechanical carbon substrate has likely suffered irreversible abrasion or 'burning' from microscopic arcing, necessitating a hardware replacement.

Alpha 16mm B1K Potentiometer
Specific to the 'Fuzz' or 'Gain' control in the Fuzz War circuit. Because this pot often sits in a high-current or sensitive biasing position of the transistor stages, any internal oxidation causes significant instability in the pedal's clipping behavior.
