I personally use  Caig De-Oxit, both the spray can and the pen applicator.  
To me, 'typical  tuner cleaner' mans Radio shack stuff. The Caig stuff is 
widely used and highly  recommended by people alot smarter than me.  I've used it 
successfully for  7 or 8 years.  73, Scott WA9WFA

I have not had this happen but have heard that some switch wafers will  swell 
when a cleaner is applied. I have the De-Oxit applicator pen and have  also 
used a toothpick dipped in the De-Oxit for getting to the wipers of  the switch.
