We recently got a batch wash machine that can use a chemical cleaner. (not a saponifier). NOW I feel confident cleaning no clean boards. Without a machine that can heat water and use a proper cleaning agent, I would not trust cleaning no clean boards

I have always understood that on boards (or circuits) operating over 900 MHz, No Clean fluxes are to be avoided. Apparently the residues left behind, while non-conductive and non-corrosive, will change impedence of the circuit. It may be a possibil
