No need to change solder pot ,anyway the contamination during clean and no clean flux may happen when change from clean to no clean which it will float on the surface of solder pot , you only clean it ( same as the dross removal ) due to in the norm

Comments are: * Use an eraser if the surface of Au is not clean, but make sure the eraser has no/low ionics (such as sulfur that is a common additive for rubber). * If the plating surface required eraser to remove the top surface, the plasma normally

Electronics Forum | Wed Dec 18 19:52:25 EST 2002 | kennyg

Problem: A SMT fine pitch or BGA component needs to be baked due to MS concerns and is needed in a hurry. In some cases the packaging will not allow a high temp/short duration bake. Production will not allow a low temp/long duration bake. If the part
