You might want to look at the ingredients, this one is at

That one contains acetone, which in and of itself is a very good
degreaser, which is also water soluble, making it ideal. That one also
contains propanol alcohol, and light naptha, which is lighter fluid.
All of these should evaporate completely if pure.

By solvent can I use propyl alcohol or clutch/ brake cleaner?

I would degrease with a solvent if possible, rub with paper towels.
Rinse with water. Clean with rubbing alcohol and a clean white paper
towel. Rinse with distilled water. Clean with H2O2 and paper towel.
Rinse with distilled water several times. Don't touch it with your
fingers during this process. Also, be extra diligent with cleaning
the edges.
If that does not work see if you can locate an ultrasonic cleaner and
work that into the cleaning process.

Ah. Well then if you are getting those results there must be, as
Marshall said, an oil based residue. Heat or a good oil
degreaser should do the trick. Heat will burn it off, the
degreaser will wash it off.
I've manipulated silver via many means and never ever put a
lubricant on, but then I'm more into 'hand work'. Your jeweler
may have done it the fastest way, which was probably by a machine
that by oiling, made the process easier for him.
But none of the lubricant should have embedded itself into the
silver, so once cleaned you should be good to go. Please let us
know how it turns out.

The reason for suspecting lubricant is that I dont expect
anything other than silver to be present. Since we know
lubrication was involved that's the reasoning.
As for the brewing, I get almost wax type stuff coming off the
wire and makes the water opaque and dirty
I am aware of the ion cloud but this is not that , after swapping
the electrodes for the commercially bought silver electrode
everything was as expected
This really irked me since I was very new to brewing cs and
assumed it was something I was doing wrong!
