Technettters,
Say you had a populated, expensive circuit pack that had been contaminated
with ethylene glycol.  Would you chuck it or clean it?  I seem to recall
that before I entered the industry that there was a time when some type of
glycol was used on making printed circuit boards(?).  The reason I mention
this, is if this were true, can glycols chemically bond at room temperature
to PCBs by more than hydrogen bonding, to the point where a water wash,
saponified or not, would not be able to remove the glycol.  I am assuming
there are no standoff issues.
