In the frying pan. You thought I was kidding about that, eh?
Jeesh, WACKO is right. I thought you were serious about the frying pan, but didn't guess you'd cherry pick parts to that level. You are the master of resistor herding.

Techspray 1676 does a good job, and can be gotten without giving a federal ID number or risk of EPA inspection. Isopropyl alcohol does a good job if used immediately after soldering or if you can scrub with it, but flux that has been on for days in hard to reaches places is difficult to get off with isopropyl.

PM me with your address if you want me to send you a can of 1676.
