the main goal of cleaning it out if you do is to remove any salt as it will corrode the circuits, it never hurts, i use qtips and alcohol for cleaning circuits or cotton ball thingies

Yes alcohol will clean it properly but there will be some moister in some of the electronic parts, I would alse Place the wet power supply in a bag with some or lots of salt as it removes all moisture from any electronics and will render it workable again...good luck

Use something that dries fast like rubbing alcohol or electronics cleaner and a can of compressed air

pure water is frequently used in industry for cleaning. to the op what you need to do is get rid of the salt since corrosive and if wet, sw can conduct to cause a damage.
