Use the isopropyl alcohol and a toothbrush

Do both sides of the board
You may need multiple applications to make it clean
Let it dry throughly before reassembly and test
Note that any dull solder should be resoldered. As the board is all surface mount, the right soldering iron, skills and solder are required. Clean again after any resoldering
Good luck.
