This is not a recommendation, just a data point: We had lots of
problems with fungus in our KWM-2A's in SE Asia. It would grow on the
chassis, and was apparently mildly conductive. Our solution was to hose
them out with a plain soap solution, rinse, and let them dry in the sun.
We got the portable "hoser" from the A/C maintenance guys on the
flight line and the soap from the dishwasher guys in the mess halls.
Kept them pretty nice. YMMV
