I make a thick paste from baking soda and water and apply it using an old toothbrush. Then I follow up with plain white vinegar to clean up the mess.
No different than cleaning up automotive battery terminals that have been neglected and allowed to create telltale "popcorn", except that on autos I use old wire brushes instead of toothbrushes.
Since I bought my first car while in HS I was told the best way to clean battery terminals was with a mixture of baking soda and water, applied with any clean, short-bristled brush. And so I've continued that procedure with any household or audio applications and it has worked just fine. However I don't mix a "thick paste", mine is pretty watery. I just dump a full teaspoon into maybe 4 oz water and stir it up.
