That week in March where every single job was a water-damaged phone

Fixed seven of them back to back, and the last one was a Pixel 8 that the owner dropped in a saltwater tide pool. Anyone have a go-to method for salt corrosion that actually works?

I've had decent luck with a long soak in isopropyl alcohol, then a careful scrub with a soft toothbrush.

What about the fumes from that much alcohol? Opening all your windows feels like a must. I worry about pets or kids breathing that in. A well ventilated garage might be safer than a kitchen sink. Just a risk I never see mentioned.
