Start with something non-abrasive like a piece of cardstock. First run it
through dry, then take another clean piece of the same with a drop of IPA or
contact cleaner on it.
If that doesn't do the job, use a aontact burnishing tool. Jonard is probably
the most common. If you need something small, the disposable type are the way
to go as you can cut them into smaller/shorter pieces then grab it with a pair
of needle-nose pliers, forceps, or whatever. After the burnishing tool, run a
piece of cardstock with IPA or contact cleaner through just to make sure
nothing is left behind.
