1. spraying deoxit will mostly move the crud around inside in the pots 
and also down onto the board, leaving residue in the pot and on the 
board.  Depending on where it ends up on the board, this could cause a 
problem.  I guess for a quick fix, you could try spraying the pot while 
holding the board upside down, so the crud flushes out the slot in the 
top of slider, away from the board.

2. there is no problem with removing the sliders and cleaning them 
separately from the board, other than the risk of damaging the pcb in 
the process (and also reassembling the board incorrectly!).
