[sdiy] Moog Rogue foam gunk

Hi,

I've been a lurker on this list for many (7? 10?) years, but this is  
probably my first post. After delaying it for a long time, I finally  
started building a modular (mostly MOTM based) half a year ago. I  
also have a small collection of (mostly) analog or electromechanical  
keyboards.

Anyways, the problem:

I am fixing a Moog Rogue, and it has the 'molten' foam problem. I've  
removed the large bits, but there is a lot of crud on the board, and  
worse, in the switches and pots. What is the recommended way of  
cleaning this? If I need to desolder the switches and pots to clean  
them, I'd rather replace them with new, if available. (Sources?) But  
that still leaves the board to clean. I tried a small area with  
alcohol, and that seems to work more or less.

With kind regards,
Ben
