Vince,

The G series is the most general purpose though not as good at cleaning.

F series is for carbon / conductive plastic and specifically for pots.
I've used teeny bits of the G stuff for pots.  Watch to not solvent off the
tracks in that case!  Guess how I know...

Clean the grit, then a little G series on the contact surface.  Pots need
more care, I usually disassemble them to physically clean the oily dust.
