We have a large outdoor chandelier type light, over our front porch. It is covered, but there is damage to the sockets as far as corrosion and a little rust. I noticed a few of the bulbs were out, so when I removed them I found the corrosion on the bulbs and the sockets today. What’s the best way to clean those sockets to get the corrosion off there? Can I use the electronic connection cleaner that you can buy in a spray can and maybe a brass brush?
I didn’t get a picture of the sockets themselves, but they basically look like the corrosion on the picture attached of the lightbulb.
