Battery Acid Damage???

2008-01-05 by rbf45356

I'm repairing a Peavey DPM C8 MIDI Master Controller and need to 
replace the battery. I found that the battery is starting to corode 
itself and has leaked what appears to be acid on the circuit board. It 
doesn't appear to have damaged anything yet. What have you guys used 
to safely remove the acid/corrosion from the circuit board???
Thanks,
Brian
