Using a white eraser from and ink pen to clean good contacts would be better.

Sorry for being sensitive. The quick written words on a forum don't work as well as a personal conversation.
Ink pen. A very descriptive southern expression which doesn't get used much up north. I love it.
Along the same lines, block eraser is a good method for cleaning plug prongs. Especially the old wheel type coarser erasers that came with a built in brush. Younger people will have no idea about those.
