I usually dip the boards in a mild solution of "Simple Green", wash with a
soft paint brush, then rinse with warm water. Just stand 'em on edge to
drain or blow-dry with a hair dryer. They come out looking like new and seem
to work just fine.
I found a TRS MODEL 16 that had been in a chicken coop for 5 or 6 years. Let
me tell ya, that sucker was nasty. Sprayed it down with the solution, rinsed
with a garden hose, plugged it in. Works just fine and it has a clean
"Citrus" smell to it.
NOTE: I did have to relube the moving parts in the floppies but, that's all.
