We've found that most "flux removers" don't really remove the flux,
they simply allow it to be spread over a larger area of the board when
brushed on.  Complete immersion can remove the flux but presents problems
to some electronic components (such as aluminum electrolytic capacitors).

We now just leave the flux on the board when replacing single components.
Spreading the flux causes more contamination problems than leaving a
small blob in a localized area.
