How to take the solder off the thread?


Hi
While installing binding posts i got some solder on the thread and that prevents me from from tightening the nut.I have one of those pumps to suck in the solder but the amount of it on the thread is too thinly spread to collect it with the pump.What is the best way to take it off?Appreciate your advices in advance.Thank You.

A wire brush may work if you can heat up the solder.
..or can you cut new threads with a tap & die?
