I've not seen products from a company named Miller-Stephenson mentioned.
They seem to have some very high tech materials available to clean
contacts. I have one called Connector Plus which is used to clean
connector contacts and leaves a thin coating of Polyphenyl Ether, which
lubricates connector during mating cycles. They say for some reason not
to use on relays. They make another product called Contact Re-Nu which
they describe  as a high purity cleaning agent which restores electrical
continuity on all types of contacts, removes dirt, oil, grease, oxidation
and operating erosion dust. Leaves no residue. Ideal for relays, tuners,
encoders, contacts and brushes, slide wires, rheostats, distribution
panels, and switching devices. They also have another product called
Contact Re-Nu and Lube, which is a cleaner with a fine hydro carbon oil
for restoring electrical continuity and lubricating moving parts. They
claim it to be excellent for cleaning and lubricating switches, relays,
disttribution panels and servo mechanisms. Contains no silicone oil.
This company also sells RFI conductive coatings for RFI/EMI shielding,
among other products.
Their number is (203)743-4447 in Danbury, CT.
Also technical help number is 1-800 992-2424, 8-4 Eastern Time-hopefully
it's still in existence.
Hopefully this will be of some help to those noisy, sticky folks out
there.

Incidentally, instead of using PAM , ever use WD-40 to line a cookie pan
to make chocolate chip cookies? That should be interesting.
