Isopropyl Alcohol is effective at removing oils, light greases, ink, grime, oxides, solder paste residues, adhesives residues, and flux residues. It is recommended for cleaning any of the following:

• Audio, video, magnetic, and optical heads
• Cables
• Electrical contacts and connectors
• Fiber optic connectors
• Optical equipment
• POS devices and scanners
• Precision instruments
• Printed circuit boards
• Production equipment and workstations
• Smart phones, pads, laptops, keyboards, and office equipment

Cleaning with IPA is often more effective when used in conjunction with the right brush, swab, or dry-wipe.
