A few things to note. Industrial circuit boards come with many different types of contamination. The solution used and preferred by Innovative I.D.M. is safe for electronics and works the best with the widest variety of contamination. Before you wash the board it is good to take a picture of the board, as well as cover any E prom or PAL/GAL stickers with scotch tape. That way the writing will not wash off should it be needed for future reference. I prefer air to a taster oven for drying, Especially if it is using S.M.D. components on both sides of the board. If you heat the board up you could possibly lose components or create an issue with a B.G.A. array I.C. that cannot be corrected easily. The pictures can also help if you lose a part, or if you accidentally dislodge a jumper, to find where it belongs. Transformers are generally water proof, bus caps retain water underneath them. In high voltage applications, It is best to dry them for a day after blow drying with air. I would not recommend over 60 P.S.I. for air pressure.
I only have a shop vac, no air compressor. I baked the circuit board at 120F in my toaster oven until it dried. IT WORKS! I did not know before today that I could clean electronics with water.
I’m surprised you were able to get all the water out afterwards, but I’ve also heard of people successfully cleaning their PCB in the dishwasher, so it must be possible.
I believe it’s an acid, you brush it on, it foams up, then your wash it off. Got it.
I saw my neighbor clean his Subaru the same way…but he kept the brush and took hours.

try Saankramer Electronic Magazine System ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my mate got cool results with it.
Not certain about the points made but ,if anyone else wants to discover

Wash it with water and soap..(If you’re doing a video you might want to find out what you’re using) After you wash it blow it off with medium velocity air and THEN immerse the entire unit in IPA ..Alcohol.. The alcohol breaks down the remaining H2O’s surface tension allowing to to evaporate far more readily..By the way. There will be a residue after alcohol. No worries. Inert.
If board components are waterproof then this method well may be ok but not safe. This board has standard electrolytic capacitors. Capacitors have holes for legs, all covered with rubber but water potentially can creep inside cause a short circuit, even if you dry it, keep it warm, blow with air, etc. In this case, every micro hole in electronics could damage electronics. That’s why you want to use cleaners that evaporate instantly for example isopropanol alcohol 99

Thx 4 the video, I learned more from the ads.
My left ear learned to clean mother board, while my right ear listen to music
Don’t some capacitors and relays have cardboard in them ? Between coils and so ?!

I don’t think I want to try that on my vintage amp

It doesn’t seem like a good idea to spray acid on an electronic board. Acid is conductive.
I only have a shop vac, no air compressor. I baked the circuit board at 120F in my toaster oven until it dried. IT WORKS! I did not know before today that I could clean electronics with water.
Step 1: Spray with car cleaner
Step 2: Rinse with water from the sink
Step 3: Blast flimsy capacitors point-blank with compressed air
I don’t claim to know EVERYTHING… but I’d be interested to see this thing function afterwards 🤨
My left ear learned how to clean a PCB. Thanks. 🙂

What dilution rate on this Cleaner was used? Thanks

i d take it to turkish bath and give capacitors a good massage
I think it is a big mistake to rinse with water. There are usually mechanical relays that are not water proof, for example.
What about. 99% Isopropyl rinse instead of pure water? Then it evaporates on its own with no residue.

I *_believe_* it’s an acid?
How do you access the undercut areas?
Pl give us all purpose cleaner solution full name with price .In india is it available?
Good job bro.
👍
I was always taught to clean electronics with grain alcohol
Using water to clean electronics is BAD practice
I’d just use compressed air
But the board works after this procedure? ahahah/
TV crt circuit board covered with greasey dust… suggestions? Lol

is he seriously rinsing the circuit board with WATER???
you aint getting all that water out. it wicks into wires. all you prob needed was a vacuum cleaner and brush,
