I'm looking for pointers to information on how to clean RMA flux from circuit boards. We're doing contract assembly and the design currently specifies RMA flux. (Build specs are basically WS-6536 and Mil-Std-2000, NOT 2000A or J-Std) We've got an in-line aqueous system (using Armakleen detergents) in place, but it's removing markings from diodes (and the markings are required to be readable). We've also been using a solvent vapor system (AK-225), but it's attacking the adhesive bonding heatsinks to the boards. Anybody care to make suggestions for RMA flux cleaning approaches or pointers to likely candidates for a)information or b)product representatives?
