Board Cleaning

Former Member over 14 years ago

What is the best method for spot cleaning CCA's when a component is replaced? Specifically, flux which remains under the components.

IPA is not doing a satisfactory job in removing the flux from underneath the components, but if we flood the area with IPA or Toluene, and vacuum it up with a suction hose, we get a much cleaner board. Do you see any issues with this method? I'm concerned that using a vacuum would create an ESD issue.
