Your best bet would be to take it to a professional to do this. Some charge as 
low as 40 bucks but it varies. It can be as high as 200 bucks for a board or 
more. If you read one of my past messages, it can be done at home, but is VERY 
risky. I call it the "Redneck" reflow. To summarize, and this isnt instructions 
to do it. Preheat your oven, toss board in oven lol.
