    Degrease flexshaft

    What's a good degreaser to clean a flexshaft to prep for soldering? Tried brake cleaner and it didn't phase it...

      Acetone or Toluene are decent degreasers. If you have a local wally their cheap can of carb cleaner has both components.

          Sand it and clean it good then use a good flux

              Like Jeff said clean it with a solvent
              rough it up a little (sand paper)
              clean again
              put a few drops of the acid included with the solder
              heat up the cable and your on your way...
