Let ‘em dry out and shoot ‘em they will be fine!
Long, Wide, Deep, and Without Hesitation!
Had friend that lost his shop to fire, fire dept. drenched what was left. The primers in a metal cabinet survived the fire but were wet, dried out they worked.
I was given a carton of old green box CCI primers that been wet. A few in one box had the mixture washed out, the rest of the carton had dried out worked fine.
Really hate that your shop was destroyed. Oil everything metal that you can or throw it in a can of oil as quick as possible, that will preserve it till you can get around to cleaning it up. It takes a while and rust never rests.
Best of luck !

Thank ye, sir! I managed to get my tools, and the loading equipment that was out of the cabinet sprayed with ACF-50 (aviation corrosion control that I think is made from platinum!) and then put in containers and covered with 5W30 motor oil (what I had handy).
Have been in salvage mode in the shop ever since the 22nd. Sourcing materials to replace the roof (2400 sq/ft!). Is going to be a hot, busy month...
