Yes, just like normal boards. tinning doesn't make a difference with
flux-core solder.
I like to spray the board with spray flux (can be made as brush-on from
colophony resin and alcohol) before soldering, it also prevents corrosion
later on. I usually don't clean boards after soldering, using resin core
solder. If you remove all the resin you should put some clear laquer on to
prevent tarnishing.
