I may have worked out a way to salvage the sensor and have ordered some equipment to enable me to tackle it in the new year. I have located some fine glass polish, pointed sensor swabs, and a sensor loupe for magnification, which together should allow me to get right to those spots. As long as the spots are remnants of the debayering process I may be able to remove them with glass polish but it's a risky step as you don't want to cut into the pixel itself. I will use the JTW debayering tutorial as a guide. More to come on this. I'd like to hear from anyone that has done this sort of thing.
