Not surprised. All you will have done is to hydrolyse the rosin, making
it slightly hygroscopic, and release the activators to do their worst. I
suggest you ask your transformer supplier to do a proper removal of his
residues. Probaly scraping is worse than doing nothing, as you will
expose the joint to the contaminants.
