And yet another, another weird corrosion story (not synth rel ated)

[Tim Ressel]

As long as we're telling war stories....

Not quite corrosion: In a past life I was a technician working on
supercomputers. I had a number of "dog" boards that I just could not fix. Now
these boards were built using no-clean flux in a wave solder process. So out of
desperation I took some "doggies" into the head and scrubbed them under water
with a large brush. then I rinsed them with distilled water. Viola! Fixed about
2/3 of the boards. 

The moral to this story is: No-clean flux may not me.
