Back in the "old days" when Quasar Canada still was a separate entity and
did board repair, they had ( I believe) 6 dishwashers to do boards in. They
washed them and did a double dry cycle., let sit for a couple of days and
then repaired and recycled them,. If you've got a lot of mud, I'd suggest
that you hose down the equipment first having removed the boards from their
respective cabinets. Things like TV's that are remote controlled may require
repair in standby circuits and anything in MDF or chip board cabinets may be
a write off. Hope most goes well, take your time and don't rush---better to
wait another day than be upset because something wasn't quite dry enough.

Subject: [TechAssist] Ivan / flood-water soaked electronics
my home and part of my business were destroyed by a flood caused by
hurricane Ivan, I live next to the Cullasaja river in Franklin NC, it is
near the Peeks Creek community, several people lost there lives and many
homes were destroyed as was mine. I had lots of home theater / PC's and TV's
in my garage and living space there(some of it new)...we had three feet of
water/mud inside...I am trying to dry out and hopefully salvage as much as
possible, I need some kind of circuit board cleaner that is cheap that I can
buy maybe a case to start with. any tips or help greatly appreciated.I had
no insurance and looks like Fema doesn't help much.
