hey, the Y button on my controller cuts out unless you press it down really hard, and the start button on the same controller is really sticky and hard to press. I was just wondering if anyone knows and really good ways to clean the internals of a controller. i have taken it apart once or twice and used some water to try and clean off dirt but it didnt help much. any tips?

I just take the controller apart and clean everything inside it with a cloth and some weird spray that works rather well.
