Internal moisture on 2" Powermate

I have a TV 2" 2x Powermate that got filled with water (aaarrrggghhh!!!) 8O
I dumped the water, left it open in a heated house for a couple of days thinking the low humidity would dry it out.
When I saw that the inside of the glass was fogged, I tried slowly heating with a hair dryer, and, predictably, it cleared.
When it came back to ambient, the fog returned. Should I keep repeating this, or do I need to take the assembly apart? I'm scared of mold forming.

Use a lamp with a filament type bulb to shine on it for 24 hours and it should dry out. Watch that it is warm, but not too hot.
