yeah I disconnected the battery and poured it on the Mac and the internals. I made sure it was completely powered down and nothing remained. I then blew air on it to make sure there wasn’t any residual water left inside small places. It was essentially dry.

But I don’t usually recommend it if you aren’t handy. If you can’t comfortably open up a MacBook and take it apart and put it back with ease then I don’t recommend it. Though it may be somewhat easier.. sometimes people lose the screws or tear connectors.

I used to work at Apple and opened a lot of wet devices that were put in rice. Rice has a bunch of dust that will get inside the phone and instead of drying it out it turns in to a gummy paste that often makes things worse.
