Ed,
Yeah that's what I thought. One of the manufacturers I worked at washed
PCB's in a dishwasher like contraption. It monitored contamination in the
ppm, etc, however electrolytic caps were never installed until the very end.
There was a reason for that because of the forced water jets. I imagine if
one used a moderate amount of water (unlike the giant dishwasher) it would
be completely safe to do.
Didn't anyone ever tell you that water and electricity doesn't mix :-)

David;
If electrolyte can get out, water can get in. But unlikely.
Why? Are you plannnig to watch TV in the tub??;-)
