I purchased a used RS-5 which has several sticky keys. I dissembled the keyboard assembly as I could tell it was a dirty mess inside. I’m cleaning the keys and overall assembly. When I go to re-assemble what lube/grease would y’all recommend I use (and on which portions of the keys)? Is there a replacement felt available from somewhere online? Thanks in advance!

Don’t use harsh chemicals or cleaning solutions, as these can damage the keyboard.
