I agree with Chad, replace, do not try to re-form. I tried re-forming on some filter caps used in a couple of AC/DC radios that I have. They re-formed and sounded ok at first. However, after a short time, the radios begain humming as if they had bad filters-they did. I have not had an issue when I re-placed the filter caps.

I also agree that paper caps are bad news all around and should always be replaced.
