It will evaporate almost instantly, but will solvate any oil and dust globs that may be down there. Then again, my phone is less than 3 weeks old, so if my buttons stick...*611/back to store.
My phone dates to late October and the buttons haven't gotten stuck yet (I'm being extremely careful), but if they do I will certainly try what you're suggesting.
