I use electrical contact cleaner, Q-tips, and a small acid brush, If the area is large enough to get into, I use a small toothbrush. You could also go to the electrical shop where you are and ask them what they use. You might also be able to sweet talk them out of some.

contact cleaner would be preferred, you can use bracleen too, though i don't know what those other solvents would do to the metal contacts.
