There's nothing I have ever tried that works better than vinegar for cleaning
up the white, fuzzy crap left behind by an alkaline battery that let go. I
just a few days ago discovered a Winder 2 with exactly such a problem. (I must
be more careful. I immediately thereafter removed all batteries from anything
I don't use at least monthly.) Fortunately, I caught it early on, and now,
after a dose of Heinz distilled white vinegar, applied gently with an old
toothbrush, it's good as new.
And vodka is not a food product. It's a quick-acting attitude adjuster, good
for funguys and fungals, not fungus. :-)
