What do folks recommend for removing that residue?

When I started removing flux, I used nail polish remover (acetone),
which removed the flux itself, but left a white residue 
where the flux had actually been used.
Then I used some freon like solvent which left no residue,
but is now banned.
So I have gone back to acetone and the white residue it leaves.
