Default Re: Cleaning and repairing a Corroded computer board

Hi.
When I used to work for a company servicing arcade machines I think they used an ultrasonic cleaning bath. I know when I was cleaning by hand that on one board the ic sockets had got corroded, so had to be replaced. I think IPA was good for cleaning, but if there were any deposits left on the board then clean water and a small amount of washing up liquid is what I used. but you do need to carefully dry the board ( not too much heat ! ).
