X65F rotaries need cleaning?

The rotaries on my throttle have gradually gotten more ratty over the years. By ratty, I mean there's a decent about of noise in the signal and on my zoom access it's now driving me crazy. Around center I use a dead zone to solve it. I'm thinking what needs to happen is I need to take the thing apart and clean out the rheostat slash potentiometer slash whatever is in there.

 

Anyone taken one of these apart? Any words of caution? Anyone have a better fix idea? Anyone think my fix won't work?

 

(I'd really like it if you could just low-pass filter the signal coming from the rotaries, but I suppose that's too much to ask for a driver for a discontinued HOTAS).

I've rebuilt the stick a couple times but not the throttle :(...

 

Biggest problem I've had with the rotaries is that the lower one seems to have lost it's detent...  Like when I press it it just activates with no movement at all.
