How about your regular drinkin' alcohol: Vodka would be a convenient mixture of
Alcohol and water...would that work?

...Mind you a bucket of Vodka - that could be dangerous!





1. Which alcohol? There's ethyl,methyl,propyl, buyl, then iso-propyl, iso
butyl etc, etc. They all have different properties.
2. There is no water in alcolhol. They must using some liquid which is a
mixture of water and an alcohol.

Some alcohols are very powerful solvents and will quite definitely kill
your camera. Pure water, or at least tap water will at least remove the
salt which is the main corrosive component in sea water. Some alcolhols
will also assist the rapid drying process.
