Ah, at that point there shouldn't be any plastic housing, it having been removed to get to the circuit board.
Victors come apart easily, pry off the bottom cover and the rest comes out with a gentle push from above.
The foil idea isn't bad, though, since the rack can get a bit too warm sometimes. I just set the over to the lowest temp, wait 15 minutes for it to warm up, turn it off and pop the boards into the over to dry (I do this for several different kinds of electronics) and can then ignore it for 2-3 hours. (Remember to take it out, though, before someone decides to preheat the oven for leftover pizza!)
Just remember, static builds up on dry surfaces, so discharge your charge on something metal before touching the board.

I can't wait until Kick Off! Simultaneously across the country there will be one loud cry of "Doh!", followed by the sound of smacking foreheads with the palm of a hand, then "Why didn't I figure that out? I saw the hint". Indeed, hind sight is 20/20. - billbo911 [more]
