Bloody best cleaner ever. Although some liked Genklene,
now also banned.
There are some commercial spray cleaners that claim to be
almost as good. I would like something in bulk for dipping
computer boards. Isopropyl alchohol is suggested by some,
but has 9% water usually.


Not sure where you are, but isopropyl alcohol is usually available 99.9%
pure, with a negligible water content.



And by the time it's dried, it's picked up a lot of water.
