liquid damaged laptops

[woodford]

at the moment i am using IPA or thinners to clean liquid from mainboards however i have been offered a bulk deal on spill damaged electronics goods.as its a lot of items i am going to invest in a ultrasonic bath to do a better job of cleaning them.my question is can i carry on using the IPA or thinners in the ultrasonic bath or does anyone use specialist cleaning products to clean the mainboards with.

thanks

Re: liquid damaged laptops

most of the ultrasonic baths i have come across have used a special chemical cleaner, with the vibrations that the bath producers IPA will probably evaporate off before its done the job anyway, thinners leaves a residue which may cause problems itself unless its cleaned off and if its got under components which are squeezed close to the pcb residue will get trapped underneath.
