Brian,

I think my reply to Phil probably answers your question, but I will
re-iterate.  I have nothing against vapour phase and
aqueous cleaners, my squirrelly little parts are the ones that don't like
water.  As far as vapour degreasers, will they really do the job for modern,
low standoff components?  I seem to recall Doug Pauls saying cleaning under
these at the best of times was difficult, so I thought that a more
physically aggressive system would be needed.  Am I wrong?  This old
no-clean goat stands ready to be educated.

regards,
Bev

Bev

What exactly are you trying to do?  I don't really understand your question
as very few
non-vapour degreasing/non-aqueous systems will give very good results, IMHO
(from
experience). Are you willing to have highly flammable solvents or
combustible ones: if
the latter, how are you going to dry? What have you got against vapour phase
and
aqueous cleaners, which have both proved, in certain cases, to be acceptable
or even
good?

In other words, are you not making a stick for your own back?
