For soldering preparation, I typically use alcohol with q-tips for cleaning the contacts, and alcohol with tissue for wiping the wires and the solder.
For clean-up, I use acid brushes with the bristles trimmed down to 1/4 to 1/2 in or so dipped in alcohol. It works absolute wonders and takes care of flux like nothing else. https://www.amazon.com/RAM-PRO-Flexible-Horsehair-Bristle-Tubular/dp/B01LXNQW9W/ref=mp_s_a_1_2_sspa?keywords=acid+brush&qid=1562073005&s=gateway&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1
Good question, and it pains me a bit that I have a small box of unused tools that were purchased when I began. I'm sure I missed a few things, but here you go:

I like those brushes because they’re cheap. You can trim them to whatever shape you need and toss them when you’re done. The cleaner is just IPA I think, but it will evaporate out and draw out a lot of moisture in he process. The spray bottle is nice, you can blast out a lot of FOD like that corrosion (before and after brushing) in the process.
Obvious safety would be a very well vented room away from flames, you’ll be spraying a flammable liquid. Be smart about it, read labels on whatever you buy.
Don’t get rough on anything, those pins WILL break if you do. Brush it like you would your kindergartener’s teeth: to clean not scrub with some knuckle.
Depending on your climate, you could do any number of things to make an oven, it just needs to be “warm” by oven standards. I went to YouTube and found more crap than good material... not much help on there. It’s made to go in a car, so keep that in mind.
In Texas it gets plenty warm enough, just keep it out of direct sunlight and park in the sun all day with the sunroof cracked.
