Shoutout to the guy who convinced me to ditch compressed air for ultrasonic cleaning
I used to blast every board with compressed air to clean off flux and dust, thinking it was fast and good enough. Then a repair shop owner in Portland told me I was just pushing contaminants deeper into sockets and under ICs. Bought a generic 2L ultrasonic cleaner for $80 last month and ran a few boards through it and the difference is night and day. Anyone else made the switch and noticed fewer intermittent issues afterward?
