Cleaning audio components with 90% isopropyl alcohol


I am about to clean the cable tips and the component input jacks with 90% isopropyl alcohol. The question is, how long do I have to wait before I plug everything back in? Thanks everyone.

Alcohol is NOT the best. I am not saying it is dangerous to use on your equipment but like one mention here that era legit contact cleaners out there. Even 90% leaves a residue which in theory can cause a less than perfect connection.

Contact cleaner is NOT expensive. Take the time to treat your expensive equipment with loving kindness. PLEASE.
