Solder past KOKI out of date. Can it be reviving

Don't do that! When solder paste dries out, all parts of the flux do not leave. The volatiles leave. Adding new flux messes with the chemistry and %metals and will not perform like new paste. If you can, get your paste in cartridges. It will last lo

Guys, So I recently started working for a small CM in Southern N.H. We currently use 2 Magic Chef Mini wine friges to store the solder paste (63/37, RoHS). I've been monitoring the room temp (and humidity) and the frige temps all this week. The pro
