I've seen posts where people discuss prying open the alps switches and refurbing the guts to restore functionality. The newly acquired 102 of mine has three flaky switches all on different circuits. I pulled all the caps off to clean the pcb and, well, they have a plastic body compared to the metal ones on the 100. The three keys are 2, q, and [. They don't feel much different compared to the other switches except one seems a bit easier to depress.

Is it safe to pry off the cap? I checked birt's channel and don't recall seeing a vid where he did a refurb on the switches. Maybe I am wrong?

A link would be appreciated if such exists.

Or should I just spray the crap out of them with qd contact cleaner and hope for the best?
