A Q-tip won't do it. You have to flood the mechanism with degreaser whilst
working the depth-of-field button to get the grease out. May have to do it
several times, all the while trying to keep splashing off the front
elements still in place. Not really that hard, but you have to take care.
The degreaser I use is called 'Asahiklin AK-225' and is available from Fargo
Enterprises. You can find it here:

There may be other stuff that works, I just don't know of it.
