Jim, you may need to look with different paste instead of the cleaning solvent. Please advise what is the paste which you currently using? Beside, when you talking about the board stayed in hot area, is it a drying area or the cleaning zone. If it

Hey Gyver: If you don�t mind (which you don�t have any choice about, because I�m going to do it anyhow, cause it�s MY word processor), I�m going to respond genericly, but still be directed to your question. Much of the following is paraphrased from

Hey Gyver: Oooow, using a pencil eraser has to take time. I would hate to be the person responding to your customer trying to explain the pencil eraser shreds accidentally left on the board. Awww, just spritz it with DI water and wipe it off with

150º de-ionized water, however, if you're doing hobby work at home, regular hot water will be fine. Just be sure to allow the water to dry sufficiently before powering up the board. You can also use IPA or a custom flux cleaning solvent available o

Water will not remove no clean flux residues because they are not water soluble. Solder paste with no clean flux should only be used when the assemblies do not need to be cleaned. That said, you can buy special cleaning solvents specifically for re

You are not unique. We too are using "no-clean" flux but yet we still have to use flux off to clean the boards before our test bays. I know of no solution to this yet but I am actively seeking one.

For flux cleaning after rework try "ProClean" flux remover.

my 2 cents here --- Even though the boards need not be cleaned after SMT when using no clean flux, you will still have to clean them before conformal coating.....and most solvents used to clean boards before coating will take out the no clean flux re

Is it possible to have a no-clean flux that could be removed with water. I would like to use a single flux at wave solder that could satisfy both no-clean and water soluble customers, within a contract manufacturing environment. Thanks, Tim A.
