So about a week or two ago, I noticed the battery compartment lid sticking for the first time as I turned it and it was no longer smooth at all...very gritty, sticking at points, against my better judgement I used a key to turn it a couple of times. That ended up working fine besides a bit of marking on the slot. I realize this is definitely not advised, but I am part Polish and very thick headed...
I could run my finger along the threads and feel what seemed like burrs, finally got around to trying to clean it up last night. I SWEAR I ordered some of that blue tak a while ago, I even found it in my amazon past orders, but nowhere to be found anywhere in the house. I had also ordered some de-oxit, which came with the contact cleaner and the "enhancer" so I cleaned and enhanced the shit out of the cap and threads with the included brush and cloth.
I was also simultaneously soaking my stems, CUs, even went as far as to soak the heater screen and aluminum tube this time, so I haven't had the chance to do a functions test, but immediately noticed a huge difference checking to see how the "burrs" came out. It may not have been burrs, just a decent amount of oxidation that had built up cause wiping it clean with the rag, such a small amount of surface area produced a good amount of gunk on the rag.
Now I'm curious if there will be any noticeable change in performance. We'll see!

They aren't without some appeal but at the same time I'm not rushing to pick more up
