Folks are recommending distilled water, because pure water is an insulator. It becomes conductive when it has ions suspended in it.
If you do try using water, instead of dry cleaning fluid, or something an integrated circuit maker or printed circuit maker might use; then to dry it out after, consider sealing every thing in an air-tight bag full of dry air and some desiccant (a big bag of the stuff used in pill bottles and other containers that need to stay dry). Dry air can be found many places in the winter.
Good luck cleaning up after your Pepsi Syndrome - Call in President Carter if you need extra help (ask someone a little oder than 50 what I"m talking about).
