[Heathkit] Blue corrosion

Does anyone know how to dissolve the blue-green crystalline corrosion
that forms on copper and brass, particularly on battery compartment
contacts? I have some corroded battery holders. Also the capacitor shaft
and bushing on my HM-10A "tunnel Dipper" are corroded (I think this was
caused by WD-40 interacting with the brass.

Would an acid like vinegar or lemon juice work?

Thanks.
