This looks like it may be a good application for an Air-Vac or Wenesco type solder station. It is a solder pot that has a small motor to pump solder up through a chimney. You can put different nozzles on the top of the chimney, so you only apply sold

Thanks for the instructions. I was missing the reflow part... Omikron is the method our board house offers. We have been through the plating thickness problem and tin depletion conditions. Beyond those issues, I have been trying a few different n
