You can use the mixture of Water and Thinner (in 50% ratio).

I use Isoprophyl (alcohol) and it works ok
the mixture is 50:50 to water

For how long do you keep the board in the ultrasonic cleaner?
Tks

@florinmar: For best results I suggest to visit nearest elecotrnic shop and look for fluid for cleaning PCB's. They are mostly available in each electronic shop but it must be fluid and tno spray of course (in our country there are 0,5L or 2 L with cost 0,5L about 10-15 USD). Please note that it will be best choice since you must got subtance that don't left substance when you pick up PCB from Ultrasonic Cleaner (self water it's not recommended since it will be OK for process but after 2 month or less client may come back with his phone that i'ts not powering ON anymore.... sad but true). Use then special fluid or if you cannot get it then Isoprophyl or Trielin

Hi george!
You say Thinner but in french it means "diluant". Do you have a name or a type of thinner?

I use IPA (Isopropyl Alcahol) 100% as it's one of the few chemicals that will not destroy any plastics on the PCB.
