Hi, Need some advice on how to eliminate or reduce the solder on finger that we are having right now. So far what we understand is that 90% of the problem is due to the reflow process where solder traps in vias causing explosion when subjecte

Looks like (so far) we have a concensus. Follow the paste manufacturers guidelines on storage. Normally, refrigeration is required to achieve max shelf life between 3 and 6 months in original closed container. Water-wash pastes are much more active t
