Well, if it's completely dry before plugging in, it can definitely get rid of dirt. On hot surfaces it sometimes gets baked in and compressed air is too little

Just put it in rice afterwards /meme

I would suggest dumping it in a 99% alcohol bath afterwards if you're gonna wash electronics in water. Alcohol will push out any water that gets stuck in any nooks and crannies and then it will dry without any residue.

Well, using IPA instead of water would probably be a better idea in the first place. But beggars can't be choosers, I guess ;)

What if we don't have any IPAs will a lager be all right?
