I did get a picure of the grunge on the inside of the mech cover.
This cleaning won't remove rust but it removes everything else.If your paint 
is in bad shape it might lift but at least it will be  as clean as it can 
possibly get.Don't leave either on good paint more than a few minutes,especially 
the ammonia.Then you can repaint as needed.Also Gumout  carbuerator cleaner and 
CRC Brakeclean is good at cleaning  grungy mech parts but keep both off paint 
and plastic.
 
I did take the latchbar solenoid loose and wrap in a sandwich bag when 
washing that keyboard.I always take the parts off that don't like water on the mechs 
but I don't mind soldering.Easier  for me when I don't have to worry about 
water getting into a bag that's not 100 % waterproof especially with wires 
protruding from the top when I'm trying to get the mech clean. 
 
I bet your Wurlizer mech will clean up just about as good as these parts 
cleaned up.
