Electrolube Fluxclene, available from most of the suppliers in a 
large can which lasts for ages.

There is a continuing thread on the Elecraft reflector about cleaning 
solvents. Elecraft recommending leaving the flux on as it causes no 
harm. Coming from a military environment I have been trained to 
remove it - it makes the job look much better, as well as hiding your 
tracks when you have been repairing things. In the USA they have all 
sorts of solvents and types of alcohol, but nobody over there sells 
stuff made for the job, like fluxclene, it seems!
