Soldering advices

Dear all,

That is the first time I post in newsgroup.

I have a question about the solders. As I know the solder left behind some flux which is very difficult to clean it in large amounts. Have anyone test a solder which does not leave that spots of flux on materials? For example I try to close some boxes and I put some soldering between the external metallic box and the pcb. When I am finished I see the yellow flux be there. Some times I have to close about 100 pieces so I must clean them after. So is any who could help me ?

Thanks

Flux can be cleaned with alcohol and a small soft brush.

Why clean it off? It usually does no harm.

Most fluxes in solders for electronic equipment today are quite harmless (may be less true of those for lead-free solder). You don't have to clean.
