Review on Efficient Cleaning Solution: MG Chemicals Clean Solder Diameter by Terrance Fisher

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good diameter size for soldering!

Definitely a better alternative to traditional lead solder as requested by my professor. At first I doubted if this lead-free solder would work for electronics because I'm a beginner, I was afraid I wasted $ and I read that lead-free solder was the only way out, but he assured me everything was fine be. . I ordered a 1/2 pound roll because I didn't want it to run out before the end of term. I've used this spool for about 4 small projects and only used 1/8th of the spool. So it's a decent amount and should last a long time if you only do small projects and don't get it wrong too often. Please remember to always ensure adequate air circulation/ventilation when soldering, this can really irritate your nose! After a week of continuous use on two projects, the fumes were in my face and for another week my nose was pretty dry. This is not due to the product, but only to me and my class environment!

Pros
  • Flux Equivalent to J-STD-004B
Cons
  • New Competitors Arrive
