The deal is a lot of toggles and switches in general, get a build up of worn material INSIDE the switch housing.. Different aerosoles, with different blends, do different things. BE very careful spraying brake fluid or starting fluid on ANYTHIG... Much less MEK.. and some solvents..
I've drilled hundreds of switches, sprayed, cleaned, and resealed with a dab of silicone... A LOT of crap usually comes out.. Then they work, half the time again, and half again... You can prolong the life a LONG time with maintenance.. :-)
3M (WD40), Deoxit, Liquid wrench, ALL make electronic products. I would use the correct one. One will wash and dry, one will lubricate with polymers, or petroleum. ALL should dry though... Some lubricates the contacts some lubricates the actual switch. It all wears, and leaves a mess..
Regards
