#141320 - I have to agree with the caution Responding to: ???'s previous message |
I've found the S.O.S. or Brillo pads are (a) too coarse, and (b) tend to leave a soap scum behind that is often not very easy to wash off. This tends to accumulate at the track edges and in the scratches made by the too-coarse steel wool.
YMMV, of course. I've had passable results by washing the boards in the diswhasher before soldering. However, simply using #00 steel wool has never disappointed me. RE |
