Subject: Re: [DW8000] what to do with a dirty synth?

From: Mark Barnes <Bugsi@...>

I did a complete disassembly on mine and cleaned every single key,
board, and component before reassembling. I cleaned keys and plastics
with Windex, and cleaned circuit boards with isopropyl alcohol, which
evaporates quickly and leaves no residue. I think the only tool I
needed was a #2 Phillips screwdriver.
