--Anyone have
any pointers on cleaning up leaked nicad crystals?
what is that stuff anyway?
It's some alkaline compound, you need a (chemically) weak acid to clean
it up. I use a dilute solution of citric acid (this stuff is somewhat
hard to get in the UK, althought it's pretty harmless. I am told that
drug pushers (the illegal kind) use it to 'cut' their wares, hence the
fact that anyone buying it is viewed with suspicion :-().
