RE: Yeah, I remember...

Clean gold pins very carefully with contact cleaner or Isopropyl Alcohol only. Depending on the integrity of the gold plating, something like Nevr-Dull can actually remove the gold.

If the gold is starting to flake off really bad, it's best to remove the gold altogether. Who knows what's going on under the plating. Cleaning regularly will keep the pins from oxidizing, much like the gold did.

Cheers!
