Re: Warning!!!

Solder paste....flux.....is intended for plumbing work. Do not use it on electrical/electonics work. It is corrosive! Only use a rosin based flux for electronics work. For that matter, only used a rosin core solder for electronics work. Seldom is it necessary to need any additional flux. If the items to be soldered are dirty clean them first with sandpaper, wire brush, and/or alcohol. When unsoldering it is often helpful to apply fresh solder first.


Good luck,
Russ
