After a Napa CA flood many years ago, I serviced some flooded components.
The VCR and reel to reel could not be salvaged, with the fine grit getting into motor bearings and not able to be extracted.
Only their speakers survived because they put them on the couch on the 2nd floor and the couch floated.
Although the Kenwood receiver was totaled by insurance, I kept it and took off the top and bottom covers, then ran it through a full cycle in my dishwasher.
Cleaned up like new. Shot the controls and switched with silicone spray and my mom and dad used it for about 7 years.
Dishwasher is your friend!
There is no truth anymore. Only assertions. The internet world has no interest in truth, only vindication for preconceived assumptions.
