Default Tips to Remove Alkaline Battery Contact Corrosion?

Per KenO:
Inherited an electronics unit that has severe contact corrosion due to bad alkaline batteries.

Appreciate any suggestions how to restore these contacts to working condition.


White vinegar applied with a Q-Tip worked for me the one time I had a similar
situation.
