      Not to mention that WD-40 captures dust like crazy, 
  almost like it attracts the stuff. Some of the silicones
  aren't far behind. Sho'nuff "tuner wash" would be best,
  but it's hard to find these days as most of them were
  freon based.  I can understand wanting to lube it, but
  they're really meant to work dry as anthing else can
  insulate.
... Never believe anything until its been officially denied.
