Cleaning method would be via manual cleaning by any suitable method where the wire strands can be cleaned prior to and after the tinning operation.

  This is most likely a cleaning issue... if that Nickel is clean, my suspicion
  is that virtually any flux you want to use will work well.

  Tell us what your options for cleaning are, not in terms of chemistry, but
  time, manual, automated line, can we immerse the leads only, or do we need to
  immerse the entire device, etc.
