Take a look at the downloadable paper on the subject of "White residues" available from NPL www.npl.co.uk/ei (Downloads) By the way, we also suffer from this problem!

White residue can often be caused by overheating the flux. When this occurs the flux is polymerized, basically turning it into an epoxy. You can usually determine if this is the problem by taking a pencil eraser to it. If it comes off, you have overh
