they can be cleaned ... I sent mine to SDX to have mine cleaned and repoped a few months ago. They do very good work you should give them a call

you can put them in vice and use a deep socket over the tip and unscrew the cap, just pay attention to how it comes apart, its not very hard, then clean everything with brake cleaner and air compressor and put it back together
