I usually just glue a small aluminum foil over it...but some switch bounce
will occur after u use foil as I presume it's too conductive...

Sound hard to beleive, considering graphite is conductive. I would
think
it
would short things out?

I was having problems with the keypad on several older programmable
scanners
(Pro 43 & 26) and found this great fix called Lub-a-Spray made by
Panef
for
$1.75 at the local hardware store. All I did was remove the case,
remove
the rubber keypad, lay it on a paper plate with the underside face
up
and
squirt this dry graphite lube into all the open spots with the
applicator,
shake the loose material off, place back in the scanner and it works
like
new. Be very careful with this stuff, as it's quite messy, but it
works
great.

Yeah, but it doesn't just stay THERE, it will be moving around inside
the radio sooner or later..
