So I googled the best way to clean a remote and found this advice.

"If you want you can try this: AT YOUR OWN RISK. Take out the batteries and put the remote in the dishwasher. Top rack. Use no soap. After the wash cycle is over lay it buttons down on a paper towel for 2 days to make sure it's dry. DO NOT DRY IT IN THE DISHWASHER OR IT WILL MELT! You might could use a hair dryer but be careful. Again do this carefully and only at your own risk!!!!!"

Isn't the internet awesome?

FWIW:

This probably came from someone that was "Old School" with regards to repairing TV's and such.

I knew a guy down in Miami that actually opened up the old TV's in his backyard and used a hose to clean the years of dirt that had accumulated in them.

Hosed them down, let them air dry, and then took them into the shop for repair.

Sounds crazy, but he was VERY busy with lots of happy customers....
