The microwave that I have, which I am considering using for CS, has a
resistance associated with it to discharge the capacitor. Not sure how
long it takes. The TV will hold a charge for a long time.
Give me the value of the resistor, and the capacitors, and I can tell
you exactly how fast it will discharge.

Kathryn,
I am probably going to horrify some with my recommendation
but you can clean your microwave in your bathtub with tap
water. The one thing I am not sure of is the magnetron which
is mounted on the side or top of the microwave chamber and
generates the actual microwaves. It has been sometime since I
tore one of those apart but as I recall they are not water
tight. I would mask off the magnetron with plastic and tape
to keep out water and ammonia.
I have cleaned a number of TVs and other electronics with tap
water with no problems. Just rinse the cleaning solution off
Very Well and Dry Completely before use. Water can be
trapped in connectors and so check they are dry inside as
well as outside. I find that drying in direct sunlight for a
couple or three days is usually enough if the days are warm.
Before you open the microwave, let it set for 2 to 3 days
unplugged to discharge the capacitors. BTW, TVs also have a
high voltage capacitor on the versions with a picture tube.
This is what I would do.
