It really depends on the quality used.
It is the same as with rosin core solder. Some leave a residue that is  
almost clear as glass (or at least lighter than PCB material), some leave  
a black ugly gunk.

If you stick a soldering iron into colophony it will melt, and smoke  
slightly, but basically not darken much.
