[R-390] Cleaning chassis suggestion

[Bob Camp]

Hi

Actually the biggest issue with MFP is a bit more simple. When you do a 
repair on a MFP coated radio you often will have to solder an MFP 
coated solder joint. The stuff that burns off of it probably isn't very 
good for you. Of course neither are lead and rosin fumes ...

Best bet is to remove the MFP before you hit the joint with the solder. 
That makes them look nice and pretty when you are done. Charred MFP in 
the solder joint is sort of ugly looking.

	Take Care!
