ultra sonic washing

[wulfman]

It depends if they are sealed or not.
in manufacturing a lot of boards they are washed off in water

if your worried test one pot see how well you can dry them
another trick that a antique radio restorer used was to wash them
 and bake in oven at low till dry after the air.
