I used a flat needle file from a set purchased from RS. A drop of deoxit on the file as suggested by Chuck is a good idea but I did'nt think of it.A burnishing tool would be a welcome addition to my tool drawer for use on the next sticky switch.No electronic background here so I don't know where to get one. If I get one I'll store it next to my hammer.
