Hi,
Some buttons on an original TV remote work, others don't. Looking at the
rubber pad under the buttons, those non-working contacts seem to be worn. If
I complete the contacts on the circuit board with metal, each works fine:
menu, volume, etc.
Is there anything specifically designed for use in re-coating the bottom of
the contacts?
I've bought a Permatex Quick Grid Rear Window Defogger Repair Kit, which is
a "highly conductive" paint-like substance from Canadian Tire. It "Contain:
silver, ethyl acetate, ethanol, 2-ethyoxyethyl acetate."
Thought I'd ask here before opening the $10 product. It may take the wear a
remote gets, or not.
Thanks!
