So i snagged a bottle of this Defluxer from work and Ive been using it after i solder my boards and knife all the gaps and between the strips. My boards are coming out with a much cleaner look, Im getting less shorts between rails, and don't have tons of flux slime all over the place anymore.
You only need to spray a little bit out onto the brush and then just scrub. You all probably knew about this stuff and are thinking I'm super late to the party, but It's really helped me with clean up and fault finding.
Im also digging the 62SN 36PB 02AG solder. Ive turned my soldering iron down a full 90 degrees F since switching. This page rules, you all rule, this forum rules, later....
