I had to look for your answer in the mail you sent, but when I found it, 
I must ask, how can it be better than acetone?

Acetone works so well, you make a shop cloth wet with it, yuo pass it 
ONE TIME and the copper is shiny clean. Heavy duty flux cleaner works as 
well.

For who removes it "mechanically": come on, how can you risk to damage 
small traces on your board, and put several minutes of effort when there 
is a simple alternative like passing a cloth ONE TIME on each side of 
the PCB?
