Hi, fixing up an Amiga 600 for a co-worker.
Caps C821 & C822 have leaked electrolyte causing the PCB to corrode.
You can see how it looked after desoldering the caps in IMG_6993
I have tried my best to clean it, the aftermath in the remaining pictures.
After this I've also tried baking soda mixed with water to stop the chemical process.
But I'm not sure if it's the best way, Googling gives very conflicting results.
I'm thinking of using Vinegar (acetic acid) but just wanted to ask first if there are any recommendations either way?
