So should I be cleaning solder conections I make now? With what?


Purest alcohol you can find.

I usually don't bother, however, if I am
doing a board with very narrow
traces, i.e. the firewire connector on a
video editing board, I will clean
it after soldering. Alcohol is ok. I
also use spray contact cleaner with
a stiff brush .... a metal handle
glue/flux brush with the bristles cut about
half way. I have also used "Carbo-Solv"
or something like that.
