Just a note on this subject. I have had unfailing success with a final swill of 100% isopropyl alcohol *ANALAR quality*. Anything less than that runs the risk of water/other contaminants. Also, canned "air" comes in various formulae. I have used photographer's negative cleaner quality, blown from 4 inches or so onto the evaporation edge of the isopropyl alcohol. *Very* clean resulting surface.

The other advantage of this treatment is that it seems to completely remove static charge.
