Gentlemen, I know this is completely out of topic but I know there are some dedicated material experts among you. So please allow me to put the following question forward:
Is there any good suggestion available on how to remove electrolytic coating resulting from leaking electrolytic capacitors from a pcb? It is not a question of good looking, the coating seems to have a real "electrical conducting" property which is absolutely bad on higher-impedance circuitry as to be found on a Tektronix TDS45A scope mainboard, where the problem is encountered. The findings so far are that the classical method with isopropanol and a brush won't work. And the internet won't give precise answers for that problem. Any suggestion is highly appreciated!
