Once Freon TF/Alcohol spray product was banned, I gave up on defluxing
boards.  I have built several ham radio kits since then, and use low
residue, (flux) solder from Ersin Multicore Solders, or Multicore Solders as
they are known now in USA.  No problems from flux,and most of my builders in
the local QRP club do not deflux as well.  We are all better off not
smelling the solvents of Alcohol, TriChlor and other noxious fumes we used
to endure.  The boards are just as pretty and no board problems over several
years now.
