How to clean electrical plugs?

Here is my problem. I keep blowing power strips and I figured out why tonight. In my younger reefing days I didn't pay much attention to drip loops and where I placed powerstrips. Now I do however over time the plugs have corroded sp? This corrosion is causing I guess an arc inside the power strips and they are blowing. Thank god for wal marts return policy. I don't want to dismantle the entire tank and its equipment so im wondering what the best way to go about cleaning all these plugs without using harsh chemicals around my system?

wire wheel on a drill, or if you have a grinder with a wire wheel on it. Just be careful
