Some Internet sites recommend acetone, others say isopropyl alcohol. A few tout their own product without saying exactly what it is. I remember reading someplace that one or the other of those will clean the flux but could also cause damage by being absorbed into components. Yes, I know this is all purely cosmetic but if it can be done safely I'd like to try it on the next kit. Suggestions?
