Did we ever come to any conclusions about "safe" disinfectants to use in electronics manufacturing/PCBA assembly areas, before all the old heads started getting 'Nam hooch flashbacks?

The 'Formula 409' mentioned seems to be uniquely US product and unavailable anyway. All the good stuff, whilst it is good for cleaning benches mats etc  appears to risk leaving residue that may be corrosive if any contaminates product. 

Anyone using stuff like 'Versan' broad spectrum disinfectant (active ingredient low % sodium hypochlorite) or 'Bio-Hygiene' all purpose sanitiser (active ingredient lactic acid)

Is dilution only with DI water recommended with these types of cleaners rather than straight from the tap/faucet?
