Know before you buy
No, this formula is designed to be safe for use on most plastics, seals, and standard PCB components. However, if you are working with sensitive or specialized materials, it is always best to perform a small spot test first.
No, this is a dry cleaning solvent that leaves zero residue. It is specifically formulated to evaporate completely, ensuring your board remains clean and ready for use without needing a secondary wipe-down.
Yes, this solvent is highly effective at removing both traditional rosin fluxes and modern no-clean flux residues, as well as ionic contamination.
While the solvent is non-conductive, we strongly recommend powering down and unplugging all electronics before cleaning to prevent accidental shorts or damage during the application process.
It features a low-odor formulation, making it much more pleasant to use in a workspace compared to traditional, harsh industrial solvents.
