Has anyone used any of the aerosol electronic contact cleaning
products to clean deep down in this device?
Or maybe suggest another solution?
Thanks all, especially Jim whose confidence inspiring detailed
description.
I worked the "upside down with micro fiber cloth" solution first and
that probably would have sufficed, but opted for the full surgical
treatment just to see what it was like. I cleaned plenty of lint from
the main cavity and some crud from the underside of the cowl which
covers the tiny track ball. I decided not to re-glue the bezel, rather
to secure it with thinly cut strips of tape.
Thanks again,
Dale
