I bought a video a few years back that showed how to CLA my Kodak Stereo
Camera.  The author/host, Jess Powell, used rubber cement thinner to
clean the shutter assembly.  After a 24 hr. dry-out, he applies some
WD-40 sparingly with a Q-tip to the relevant moving parts.

I did everything as he did, and the shutter is still OK 3 years on.
