I use DeoxIT D5 in the aerosol can.
Once I finished rebuilding a 41-226 "Sled," I tried using contact cleaner on the pushbutton mechanism. The pushbuttons still refused to work correctly after cleaning with the generic contact cleaner. So, I sprayed them with DeoxIT D5, and that's all it took...the DeoxIT restored the pushbutton mechanism to proper operation.

Yup. Allow the DeoxIT to evaporate before applying power = let it dry before applying power = same thing.
