Hello,
I've recently been buying cheap kits to practice on my soldering skills. While many I only used to practice, some I want to keep. (like substitution boxes) and so I went about trying to remove the flux left from soldering.
What is the preferred method as I read different things from different people. I purchased MG Chemicals 413B in a spray can and while it removed the bulk of the left over flux, there is still a thin sticky film left.
I also have some 99% Isopropyl alcohol that I use for cleaning other things, but those I usually submerge in the alcohol. That seems to do a better job than spraying the MB 413 and using a static free brush. Maybe if the MG 413 wasn't a spray can and I could submerge it in that.
Should I just switch to the alcohol or am I just using the MG 413 incorrectly? I suppose the alcohol is less dangerous of a chemical.
Thanks for any feedback.
