There is NO "too soon" on applying water to transformers. Yes, it SOMETIMES 
works... but most of the time it is simply a dumb thing to do. I used to 
wash Tektronix 545s and the like (for Tek) and about 1 in 3 blew. That's 
after considerable care not to spray the xfmr, and 72 hours in an oven. 
DON'T DO IT. EVER.
