Nice job,no small feat soldering all that, i still have mine to do now!
As for the IDE gals, are you using the same speed Gals as originals? sometimes it can be picky.

Chipquick is basically bismuth,its got a low melting point so heat is not a issue, also it doesn't like to "cling' to the chip so much so cleaning is not an issue.

What's the best way to clean off afterwards?  Solder wick?

Glad you found the IDE trouble and it was a easy fix  ;D
As for the chipquick,big blobs can cling to a hot iron, solder wick for clean up.
