Hi,
I use Kesters' Soldering Resin Paste(Flux) and 60/40 solder resin core. I
don't bother with all the fancy ones even though I have tried them. This has
always worked and still does.
One of my friends always uses acid flux because it washes off so easily. Each
to his own.
Lately the lead free seems to work.
cheers,
Andy Malette
