    <p>It's my experience that you'll regret using alcohol because it
      tends to dry out anything it touches. Therefore it might
      negatively affect any lubricants it would touch.</p>

    <p>I've used the Caig products with much success for pots that are
      unsealed. Sealed pots are impossible to clean without opening
      them. I'd just replace sealed pots. It's hard to get them back to
      their original shape after opening them. YMMV due to exceptional
      skill.</p>

            I'm about to clean a scratchy volume pot of my Korg Polysix.
            I was thinking of dismantling the pot and using isoprophyl
            alcohol to clean the wiper contacts. However, am I also
            supposed to add some very small amount of lubricant (such as
            PRF Kontakt 7-78) to the contacts after cleaning or would it
            be better to leave it dry?</div>

            Also, in general do new factory fresh pots have lubricant on
            the contacts or are they dry?</div>
