Hope for aspiring PNP bluers..

[Davefx]

If anyone out there has pretty much conceded to the fact that they cannot make a board with PNP blue, take heart..  I was one of those.  Not anymore, however.  What I have found to be MY salvation with it is WHAT you clean the board with!  A "No phosphate" cleanser.  Yes, just like FP says in his essays.  For long time, I used Comet.. :x  WRONG!  I looked everywhere in Ft. Lauderdale for Bon Ami, and could not find it. However Walmart has "Barkeepers Friend" which I'm sure is a similar product, as it has no phosphates.  So, I pretty much do it verbatim to FP's suggestions. Cleanser with running water, 2-3 times, shake excess water, and let air dry. The beginning of the steam setting on the iron,  alternate leaving the iron set on the board and moderate pressure movement  4-5 mins, and that's it.  I finally have consistant results! Made the AMZ Mosfet booster and another Orange Squeezer boards in about 20 mins! BTW, you rock, Fp..

 This is old news to a lot of you who already know how, but for me to conquer something is good news for me, and I hope I may help another.  Isn't that what this forum is all about?
