Friends, please share this useful restoration tip! When using an Ultrasonic cleaner, consider BAGGING the items! This PsOne mainboard is disgusting and I can safely clean it and MANY OTHER HTINGS without refilling the tank. The cleaner is ONLY in the bag. No waste! Follow me here for more!

Oh that's clever. Do you have to change anything to make this work?

I’ve been interested in diving into ultrasonic cleaning for my arcade PCBs for some time but I’m super paranoid I will damage them somehow. I know some components like crystal oscillators can be damaged by ultrasonic frequencies and I wonder what other types of components I need to worry about…

This is such good advice for them in general. I do the same thing with disgusting brass instruments.

Great idea. What size tank do you use?
