I still prefer isopropyl. I've noticed some Chromebooks in my school where water got on the keyboard, and after a few days or weeks IT opened them up finding green-blue corrosion. It’s not about being perfect at cleaning, but the risk isn’t worth it.

I've been working on this for several years. If it were really an issue, people would have complained quickly—within a month they'd be upset about random board failures during shipping, and no one would mention anything except that. I also use groundwater, maybe because my house has a pump, which might explain why there are no water bills reported. Still, everything seems fine here, especially since it works well in a tropical climate.

I'm curious about whether applying genuine isopropyl alcohol could lower the rate of board failures during transit.

only received one board in shipping, which was a p6z68 deluxe—it doesn’t turn on anymore. out of the roughly ten boards I’ve sold, this one is the only one that failed. the other that arrived damaged had a torn cap, and it was already showing signs of wear, needing an extra vcore.

Disregarding the damaged cap (likely from rough treatment), a 10% failure rate still appears quite concerning.
