Yup i should be patient enough nt i clean my tips 😂

It was very informative and useful, thank you ❤

This doesn't really explain anything about the reasoning behind when you use what mathod. It's just melting solder to music. What does a level mean?

I love how everything is demonstrated

最初に、ボールペン用の消しゴム、砂消しゴムみたいなやつで、こて先を、こする。

酸化した部分を、こすり取る。

次に、こて先を温めたら、ヤニ入りハンダを当てて、こて先をハンダで包む。

😊！

Fist me

And that's only Part One.

It does not make sense to me but its a beautiful process.thanks for sharing this. God bless you

Excelente

I damged my soldering tip but i was able still use it for 2 years longer until i get a new soldering iron becuse amtech 30w soldering iron has a 6mm tip which I can not find anywhere its either 6.4 or 5.6

This probably a dumb question, buy why wouldn't a very fine grit sandpaper, like 1200+, be able to do all this? I see sandpaper is used in some places, but it's like 600 grit which is pretty rough.

At some point of time it looks like he is just wasting solder. 😂

Can't wait for you to explain how to blink.

Dude spends so much solder, and steel wool, and sandpaper, he could have bought a new tip instead.

How many of y'all ruined the iron coating on your tips after trying steel wool?

good video but I don't mind clean tip with sand paper . It may destroy coating but I don't mind because it fast efficent and replace the tip is dirt cheap here in Thailand.

Wait what was the reason for lighting the steel wool on fire is that on purpose or were you showing us that to

I have a good 40 soldering iron due to frustration of not knowing how to clean it correctly LOL thank you

I put the tip in the drill and gently apply a low-grit sanding sponge.

Someone can answer this? Why not use sand paper to clean that?? Is that legal??

Just buy a new tip stop being cheap.

Always tin your tips from day one!!! If it’s a habit, really they never get damaged/oxidized

My God man just buy some new tips!

Somewhat interesting, but the phone slipped out of my hand three times as I dozed off. I can honestly say I would never spend that amount of time cleaning a soldering tip, when you can just buy a new one and get on with it. And, look after the ones you have better and they won't get that janky to begin with. The third time I woke up, I thought it was Christmas.

VERY good video, thanks. Have not seen this expertise on any other 'pro' vids here on YT.

HYDROCLORIC ACID CLEAN THE DAMN TIP IN THE FIRST ATTEMPT. 🤣

STOP WITH THE MUSIC!!!! Please. Stop. Have you nothing to say?

I use alcohol to clean my tip

As others have said. Aweful!

meanwhile you can also retin the tip using electrochemical cleaning then plating in SnCl2 with surfactant.

Use scrubber

Brutal to watch

io uso un pezzo di fibra di vetro per pulire , mentre per le punte molto rovinate , faccio un riporto di lega di argento a 500 gradi con fiamma a gas ( tipo castolin)

If it's oxidation that's giving the problem maybe some white distilled vinegaR? Idk my best guess

Here is an easier way unscrew the tip and then clean it with any thing that cleans? I tried it it works really well

The simplest easiest way is to just burn flux and then scratch with a paper cutter while the solder is hot no need to waste so much time on just cleaning the tip and clean as you solder not after soldering. it's easier trust me

Nice video / review !

Simplemente use una lija de metal y quedó limpia en menos de 2 minutos

Very good !!!! 👍👍👍👍👍

I clean the tip with cotton swabs, that's all I need.

Thanks for the tips...

Mate just dip the soldering iron in a tube of flux really quickly 3 times and it usually wipes the oxidation right off

Level 3: Get new tip lol.

Amazing dedication!

This is the most I’m depth explanations of how to without even saying a word. I now have to go find a video by this person to see how their solder joints look, I bet it’s a work of art.
