The denaturing agents in things like rubbing alcohol will leave undesirable residues as may the coloring agents used now in some rubbing alcohol.
Use Everclear, or pure Ethyl alcohol, (taxable by Feds) for circuit board cleaning. Cut off the bristles of standard "Acid Brush" to half the normal length to get stiff bristle effect for scrubbing the soldered joints. Acid brushes seem to be stocked by Home Depot and Lowe's as well as wholesale plumbing supply houses. You want the pure stuff, without risk of residue. -Stuart K5KVH _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
