Hi, is there an easy way to clean the silent contacts, without completely stripping the mechanism?

Hi, looking through your method to clean the contacts seems very complicated. I'm probably being stupid, but if the two rivets holding the silent contact fitting were drilled out, would it be possible to slide it out, clean the contacts, reinstall, then refix with bolts or fresh rivets?

I have successfully removed the contacts and then simply bolted back. It is fiddly, but can be done. You need some bendy tools to hold the bolts in place while you screw the nut back on!
