I wouldn't clean the boards. I didn't on mine.
If you do, with alcohol, be sure not to use Completely Denatured Alcohol. It is a serious poison and can be absorbed via your skin. It contains brucine, very nasty stuff. Be careful. I'm sure your boards will be fine if you use good solder and solder carefully. pete, kn6bi -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Doug Faunt N6TQS +1-510-655-8604 Sent: Wednesday, December 13, 2006 10:08 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Solvent At least around here, 99% isopropyl is readily available, and is only slightly more expensive. 73, doug From: "Jim Miller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2006 12:30:24 -0500 If you go to the drug store and look closely you can find 91% isopropyl alcohol. The remaining 9% is water which won't hurt anything. Works fine esp with acid brush previously mentioned. 73 jim ab3cv _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
