DeoxIT might actually work to clean the mechanical parts, but that's not

relubricate with grease after it had dried.


What kinda grease? Lithium grease (I got handy)?


White lithium grease is probably fine.


Perhaps, depending on what else if anything is in it...one of the
specific-purposes dielectric greases would be more certain unless it
mentions being a dielectric...
