On the topic of vacuum tubes...

So last week I noticed a channel imbalance, where the right channel was barely audible. I immediately thought faulty tube. So I removed the tube that was causing the problem, re-inserted it and everything has been fine since.

This leads to the question on proper maintenance? I am sure the pins/sockets need cleaning. What is the correct product to use and how often should this be done?
