You just have to trust that there is a patina since you're not allowed to ever take it out of the box - ever. But it's there and it's awesome, trust me. I never plug pedals in for a living and I know what I'm talking about.

no no no on the sandpaper.


One of the best things to clean those and other contacts (Works well on resistor, cap, etc. leads as well) is
a simple pencil eraser
.

And Deoxit to clear the debris.


For Component leads (This one is more for the DIY folks):

For input/output jacks:

Both of those are miracle workers.



Yup - good tip!

Erasers are also great for cleaning contacts on PCI / PCIe computer cards, etc.
