Well, in those between-the-lens leaf shutters, the only way to get at the shutter and aperture leaves is to remove the lens glass. I usually take out all of the glass, from the front and the back of the shutter, in order to clean both sides. A proper (adjustable) lens spanner makes that much easier.

In extreme cases, you may have to dismantle the shutter completely and clean each blade and actuating ring seperately, but that is a tedious job.
