Chip Quik Any Good?

Post by yaniktheyak »

Is this a good way to remove SMDs cleanly?

I remove 'em with a cheap Ayoue hot air station if I'm going to reuse them. If not, removal depends on the chip and my fancy: Hot air (Ayoue), hot iron (Pace), or with a small set of diagonal cutters (works well on 62256 SRAMs).

Chip Quik is a bit pricey and too much work for my taste.
