I went over each one with 60 grit sandpaper to sand off the layers of whatever that had engrained themselves into the surface of the metal. What is the result now?<snip>

Don't forget to coat the newly cleaned contacts/surfaces after they are
exposed to O2 in the atmosphere they will begin to oxidize all over
