[sdiy] Cleaning assembled PCBs

[GRAHAM ATKINS]

Hi Karl,

I spent many years working in broadcasting, alot of which involved  
looking after VTR
machines. Inevitably one of the operators would accidentaly knock a  
cup of coffee or
similar over, running into the insides of the machine. Due to the  
corrosive nature of so
many substances we used to get the boards out ASAP and run them under  
a warm tap
(Fawcet) to get all the dirt off. Small brushes (I use cheap  
toothbrushes) help. Then let
everything dry, or give it a hand with a hairdryer (Not too hot !).
