Denatured alcohol can have "nasties" albeit in small quantities. Ethanol evaporates too fast to be better than MS for flux removal IMO. While fast evaporation is necessary for cleaning surfaces like glass to prevent smearing (methanol is the best here), a more balanced solvent is better suited for heavy deposit buildup. Furthermore, MS plus compressed air will evaporate almost as fast as acetone, in other words you have control over the rate of evaporation. --- In Homebrew_PCBs@yahoogroups.com, "wbblair3" <wbblair3@...> wrote: > >
