Default Re: Stripboard warning

One tip for veroboard (or indeed any copper laminate pcb) after cleaning off the tarnish is to spray it with hairspray. Preferably non-perfumed! Its a very light laquer that dissapears at soldering tempetatutes so acts as a sort of flux. And of course, someone at home may just have some you could "borrow" it does rub off but usually sticks around for a few weeks if youre experimenting, cleaning vero after youve soldered onto it is fiddly.
