Remember...progold is for plated connectors and has limited amounts
of deoxidizers etc.  DeOxit is recommended for most applications,
save plated connectors that are already in decent condition(ProGold
is most popular in the audio/video/computer fields.)  You won't harm
plated connectors using Deoxit, but they claim some
fancy-shmancy-atoms-jazzing-around-stuff with the ProGold and plated
connectors(not sure I really believe it, but...)

Oh, incidentally, CaiLube MCL is a moving contact cleaner that works
great on sliders, particularly volume controls and such; its an audio
engineer's dream for soundboards.  They have teeny little sprayers
which should be plenty for several radios, your ancient TV, etc...
