Vintage Synth Repair

ha! sorry, i shouldn't have made WD40 sound like an actual 
consideration. .

i'm just asking for the available options and their pros and cons.

are there any possible risks of using deoxIT? i've read so much about 
various chemicals being bad for certain electronics..

thanks for these suggestions so far!
