Can somebody help with my Nintendo DS shoulder buttons? Both the L and R have stoped working for years.

I did a search and I found out that the problem is pure dust so if you blow the gap between the buttons it works again.

I did that (even knowing that it is not a good ideia to spit on electronics insides) and they worked for a little while but stoped again. They also would not work every single time I pressed them.

Then I saw a video of a guy opening his console and cleaning the button with alcohol and I did that too. They worked for days, but started to fail again. They're 100x better now, but are not 100% working.

Should I clean them again with alcohol? I really think there is an easy solution to this, I'm just very stupid when it comes to things like this.
