We buy these spray cans of TCE for defluxing circuit boards. I
know that fluorocarbons are bad for the ozone layer and in this
case, we're not just talking about the propellant, but the contents
delivered by the propellant are fluorocarbons (I believe).
What alternative do we have? We really need to be able to clean
the circuit boards after reworking them so we can visually inspect
them and also to remove any small pieces of solder.
