Can I dip the populated board in flux and achieve good results? Also how easy is it to clean the flux off the board afterwards if it is waterbased? Do you simply brush the board with a damp brush or spray some remover on the board? I also have this q

Hi, There is a reason why the Fuji's have a price premium, as they work perfectly, all the time. I cannot believe how much better the Fuji machines are once we upgraded from MYDATA, and it was worth every cent. If your main job is to put down comp
