I listen to someone who told me,just a pencil eraser will do.I tried it and it did work.superglue ?,i dont think there is a need for that.They might be fixable.

A little while ago, I bought a keypad repair kit supposedly for a poly6
or emulator II (off ebay) as about 6 keys on my P6 were a bit
intermittent.

I used this kit according to instructions, and it pretty much made the
unreliable keys totally unreliable..

[ clean the pads, apply a primer to the pads, apply superglue to the
pads, apply conductive solution to the pads. ]

Whats even more tragic, is that i did most of the keys, so now i have a
poly6 with about 20 keys not working that great.

Anybody had any luck with these kits? If so, please enlighten
me, 'cause im rather p%$#ed off.
