I really don't know Ernest.  As best I recall we used lead containers in chemistry class in high school to contain acids - but, must admit that is a 50+ year recall {:>)

I suspect that most of these products may be cleaners rather than solvents despite what they are called.  Anyone really know?

I have no idea about the cleaners vs solvents (how does it clean it if it doesn't dissolve it?), but I've been thinking.  The electrodes should be made of a fairly corrosive resistent material.  Couldn't they withstand a short bath in a mild acid...maybe a little vinegar or a warm Coke?  The burnt lead should react quickly.
