I’ll be straight with it. I’m a smoker, I smoke inside, I have a PC that is also inside. I want to clean my PC thoroughly to buy it a few more years. I know about the q tip method, and the compressed air, and general methods of cleaning out gunk and junk from PC parts. But this boy is way too gunked up for a regular cleaning. So, I reckon, the easiest way to clean it is to dunk the dirtiest parts in a bath of isopropyl alcohol. I was considering acetone at first, but it’s way too strong of a solvent, and alcohol should be better at dissolving organic residues. Is this a good idea?
I hereby submit this query to the council, and await judgement.
Their post didn’t sound like they were going to RUN it submerged in alcohol… Just dunking in the alcohol to clean it off. I don’t think mineral oil is going to help clean the parts much.
Finally! someone with at least half a brain. Yes, I don’t plan to RUN a PC when it’s submerged in EXTREMELY flammable alcohol. Why would anyone think that, i have no idea. The post literally states that I want to clean the PC parts. You clean it when it’s turned off and unplugged. Or is that not how people do it?
