Cleaning off battery gunk from remote

General Asylum

General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

HI,

I have a remote for a CD player that has not been used for awhile. I was horrified to open up its battery compartment where the AA Duracell batteries in it had leaked junk over the compartment.

These is a whitish crystalline crud over the terminals and it looks as though some clear liquid goo has flowed out as well.

I don't know if this has ruined the remote, but I wonder what I ought to use to clean this junk off?

Thanks for any advice,

George Roland
