Try putting it in a ziplock bag with some dessicant for a day or two. If
that doesn't take any moisture out, try the oven at a very low temperature
;)

But seriously. I had the misfortune to make a lightmeter go for a swim and
two days into a ziplock with dessicant dried it right out and hasn't
affected the meter.
