At Radio Shack there is an electronic spray that I have used to great sucess. doesnt seem to wear the connectors down, but it cleans the corrosion and oxidation. It sells for about US$10. Chris 1977

A rotary wire brush in a battery-operated Dremel tool polishes them well, if you can get the tool to the work. If you go thru the coating you can re-tin the connectors with a soldering iron. Er, if y
