Cleaning the MAF the economical way

Just cleaned my MAF as general preventative maintenance, and did a lot of research on available products (CRC etc)
The end result was to use electrical contact cleaner (no after spray residue)
and about $2.50 a can versus $10.00 to $12.00 for CRC.
It works like a charm, and my MAF is clean as a whistle.
Never hurts to save a few $$$$$ if the results are the same.
Just passing it on.....................
