soldering wires,what you use to clean the flux of the solder joint to prevent corrosion from the burnt flux . or do you not have to clean it when using rosin core solder? thank`s

 

Never solder wires with flux other than resin-core. At work we never clean them off but if you want to be sure you could clean them with a little alcohol and then spray with PCB laquer. You could go a little further and use heat shrink sleeve (put on before soldering then slide over)

 

I'm not sure I understand the question. Others may be different but I don't use flux at all. If the wires I want to join have any type of corrosion on them I clean them with muratic acid first. It makes for a cleaner solder joint. I slide a piece of shrink tube on one of the wires before I make the connection.

 

You can use break cleaner to remove any excess flux and then use a heat shrink over the joint.



cheers

 

Always use rosin-core solder for electronics. The rosin-core flux will not corrode anything. You can leave it without concern. If you don't like how it looks, clean it off with some alcohol.

 

thanks for the help, that answerd my ?
