Rinse several times with hot water then rinse very well with isopropyl alcoho. Put in warm place to dry. Meggar the armature from commutator to shaft and meggar field windings from one connection to yoke. If you cant find megger use a VOM.
Ground resistance should be at absolute minimum 250 Kohm. If you have a motor shop handy have them put the armature on a growler and do megger for you.
