    It appears to be a Russian brand called Rexant can't seem to find what the active ingredient is but any electronics safe (ie non-conductive) solvent would do the job most likely. You can get Isopropyl Alcohol in aerosol cans like that which would fit the bill do be aware that some brands also sell 70% Isopropyl Alcohol as a disinfectant or sanitizer this is not the one you want, get the 99.9% stuff typically this will be marketed as electronics cleaner anyway. The 70% stuff is no good as the remaining 30% is mostly water and it's unlikely to be distilled water either even before you exposed it to the air and it promptly forms a weak carbonic acid solution which is conductive anyway.

    Hello, press the volume up, menu, and power buttons for 10 seconds. The recovery menu will appear. Select factory reset and confirm the choice. After that, there will be a complete reset of the settings and information. The phone will return to the factory settings. All information on the phone will be erased! If you have had a Google account on the phone, you will need to sign in it again to get all your stuff back like phone numbers, pics on Drive, etc.
