A-zone sells QD (quick-dry) Electronics Cleaner. It looks like a can of WD-40, only black & red. Woked well for me.

They actually sell MAF cleaner in a grey spraycan. Check AZ or Advance Auto.

well, if you lost power due to a dirty MAF, then after cleaning maybe technically you are "gaining" it (back)

CRC Industries offers a MAF cleaner product. I found it at Bennet Auto.
