Thanks for replying, I got all the stickiness up with the alcohol, but there was a non sticky film left. My wile has been scrubbing it with cleanser and a scrub brush and it's not as bad as it was this morning.
The funny thing is that I've been thinking about buying some flux remover. I just built 5 PCBs and was asking at work where I could buy some and everybody there said that I didn't need it. They said to just use alcohol, but I'm not real happy with how the board looks after using it. I don't have any place locally to buy such things. I actually had a can in my hand a few weeks ago when I was out of town and then changed my mind at the last minute.
Oh well, the wife says she's making progress so we'll see. I'm just glad it wasn't carpet.
Thanks again.
