I now own a cathode ray oscilloscope! Just need to pick it up tomorrow, and then test/fix/calibrate as necessary.
Pre-wash, rinse, soapy water wash, rinse. Now into the oven on VERY low to dry fully and quickly

This was obviously a frequently-used tool. The grease stains caught a lot of diesel soot, and needed a decent scrub to get clean. There’s definitely some petroleum residue in those areas because those areas look clean but are still hydrophobic

Now carefully considering how to proceed. Am thinking, quick vacuum with a soft brush attachment to get the worst of it out, attack the front panel knobs and connectors with baby-grade wet wipes.
Obviously I don’t want to put any tap water anywhere near the electronics, but I am a bit concerned about static electricity generated by the vacuum cleaner.
Maybe outside and spray it with an air blower instead. No fans in this thing to generate stray voltages…
Air blower and a paint brush! Came up a treat!
Yeah that’s looking pretty good now

Yeah only thing left to do now is attack the front and back panels with baby wipes, then hit the switches with contact cleaner
But first, I need to get some drugs
On second thoughts, maybe hit the switches with orange oil degreaser first
@jpm the drugs worked then?
