Review: Good stuff - Good stuff Still successfully cleaning my soldering iron after many years.
Review: Surprised...it works - I've always had problems getting my irons to tin either electric of gas. There is a way to do it on YouTube but I found this little tin of tinner really smart, I scrape the contents onto the hot tip, do the job, also on advice of a friend I put extra flux on the solder and tip, makes solder flow better. Recommended.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: It didn't come with any instructions - do you just dip the heated soldering iron tip in it?**
A: First, before heating, use bronze or steel wool to wipe the crud off the tip.  The heat it to working temperature and tin with a little solder.  Then clean the tip in a brass or natural sponge.   Dip the tip into the tinner briefly.  Finally one last tripo to the sponge and you are ready to go.  It's tedious but the results are worth the trouble if you take pride in your work.

**Q: About how many applications does this size provide?**
A: It's going to depend on wire size or size of item tinning. I'm using 22 to 16 Awg wire and I have tinned some where around 75 to 100 wires and I have 25% remaining

**Q: is this just solder or is it like a paste?**
A: It's a densely-packed cake of powder.  When you put the hot iron tip into it, it melts around the tip like solder and gets shiny like solder.

**Q: I bought this and the "hakko 599b-02 solder tip clean" to clean my pyrography tips.  however, neither item came with instructions.  can anyone help?**
A: Does a pyrographer need to clean their tips? Don't you just burnish your wood?

This stuff, just like the Hakko product, both cleans the tip of a soldering iron and tins it very thinly. This helps greatly in heat transfer and helps to transfer solder when soldering. You, on the other hand, probably don't care for the tin. So you might just want to look for ammonium sulfate, or you could just keep a wet sponge on hand and some of that brass swarf that us solderers like as well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good stuff

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best price around by far
*by K***E on 7 April 2023*

This works great for maintaining the top of my Hakko soldering iron, which I use multiple times per week for stained glass at around 360/410 degrees using blowpipe solder and liquid flux. I tin the tip probably four or five times a ‘session’ and before I switch the iron off. Lasts for ages even though it’s only a small tin. Only isdue I’ve had is as it’s a tin with a sort of press fit seal, if the tin starts to corrode/rust it jams and us an absolute nightmare to prize open again! Great value though - almost half the price of the stained glass specialist suppliers I use for the rest of my kit online.
