Sure, the formulation and purpose of a soldering flux and a socket cleaner are basically the same. Off the top of my head, differences are: * Activation temperature: soldering flux [~200*C], socket cleaner [~120*F] * Compatibility with some solder

Hi Dave, It may be. DI water alone will not build up residue. It can attack the finish of electro-polished (mirrored) stainless steel though. I have seen a white / chalky buildup on poly inline cleaners, usually isolated in the wash section. The
