Just to make the PCBs sparkle, is there any reason why I should not
spray a completed PCB with a Flux Remover/PCB Cleaner. I have not
used one in the past for the K1 or KX1 builds, but as the K2 task
is slightly bigger, it would keep everything spic-and-span.
Comments welcome.

It's not really necessary, but if done you need to be careful not to
let it get into any of the components--a few drops on a piece of lint-
free cloth would be better than spraying. I used Multicore 63/37
with "no-clean" flux and the boards came out looking fine without any
additional steps. I believe this flux is less active than the
regular type, but I had no problem obtaining decent joints.
