Great collection! Check out the Atlas from Cannonkeys, only available on secondary market now, but really nice, brass weighted 5x12 ortho board.

Hi! Thank you for the advice! With a number of people suggesting IPA, I was going that route, but was assuming I would be applying the IPA to the PCBs with a cloth. It sounds like you are suggesting immersing the whole PCB in IPA, is that right? I have only 6-7 that were fully submerged and have a ton of moisture on them now that I have started taking them apart. No problem to immerse them, but I have not done that before, want to double check I am understanding right before I put them all the way in instead of dabbing them with cloth.

Thanks!

Thank you for allowing the post, I appreciate it!

I have pulled one board apart so far, and the PCB is soaked, but I think you are right, the caps seemed to have protected the switches, I popped a couple open and there is not water inside the switch.

Going to give the alcohol idea a try, thank you!
