Hello all, Has anyone used Kester 2331-ZX water soluble flux on selective soldering and expirienced a white film after soldering. I have seen this on and off for a few weeks now and believe it is a chemical reaction with the solder mask or improperly

Thanks Dennis, The fact that someone other than myself has experienced this is good to hear. Solder mask type should be spec'd all the same through out the many board suppliers we use but its worth the check.I have checked with kester but am still aw

Hi, I am currently using a peelable mask prior to wave soldering and have started exploring water soluble/washable masks. The mask will be used with water based and alcohol based flux. Are there any compatability issues to concider and how will this
