A no-clean paste with an above average amount of halides should do the trick. Kester EP256HA is a good choice for this application if you are using a leaded alloy (Sn63 or Sn62).

We currently use Kester's ep256 as well and it seems to be a bit more grainy than one would expect from lead, especially if the temperature is too low. That paste says it's specialty is being robust over a wide range of profiles and stencil conditio

Haven't run those boards again, so haven't had the issue.. Since it seems like we may want to start using more aggressive flux based paste soon, what are some good choices? Ideally I'd like to stay with Kester, since they are readily available. EP2
