[sdiy] how to fix JX-8P keys?

[Bob Weigel]

I think deoxit D5 on metal contacts is probably best.  Just use acetone 
if something that will dissolve in that solvent got on there or 
something.  In general a good contact cleaner is the best bet I think.  
I think my old Aelita with the russian metal contacts is improving 
slowly after treating it a while back with deoxiD I think (GC product) 
.  Took a long time but I haven't had notes drop out the last few 
times.  They're all in series on that one so if one doesn't return 
everything below it dies.   -Bob
