Re: Jag vs. Dr. Pepper

I've always used some denatured alcohol. You can grab it at a home depot by the paint. The concentration is going to be higher than that of Isopropyl, thus less water.

If there are no obvious burn marks, then I'd say to rinse it in the alcohol, then let it dry. Alcohol is a very very very very poor conductor. So, you should be fine, but you can let it evaporate off if you want to be safe.

BTW: Denatured alcohol is basically ethanol, the stuff that you can drink, but it has a lot of nasty stuff in it that'll kill you if you ever try to drink it. So just make sure that nobody gets reckless with it.
