I just read all this thread and learned many things from you.
Here are my comments and questions:
- I read that the rosin in the Kester 44 is "non-conductive".
Maybe all rosins are non-conductive or mildly conductive... but, isn't it bad for our application? Isn't its electric resistance an issue? Isn't it better to avoid, if unnecessary, the use of rosin flux because of this?
I know that some rosin evaporates with the heat of soldering but what about the residue?
nothing a little motor cleaner or electronics cleaner won't cure.
a little wipe with a treated rag, and nobody will know you used flux and they'll be asking you how you got your solder joints so smooth and professional looking
