Cleaning controls.

On my Roland Keyboard, the pitch bend and volume controls have some problems that might normally be associated with a dirty potentiometer. Wondering the best approach to cleaning them. Didn't get any response from the keyboard department, but thought Andy might have a thought before getting my hands dirty. Definitely don't want to get it wrong. (Can work around the issue for a while, but sooner or later, not dealing with it will come back to haunt me.)

I believe Andy (agedhorse) is at the 2013 winter Namm show... and may be out of pocket for a few days.

I need to catch up with those guys, for I am their leader.

F'ing tired, really beat.

 

Caig F-5 (D-5 is ok but not as good), and just a tiny amount sprayed into the particular control. Nothing else or you can end up with a really big mess.
