"Bugs Juice"
The original brew from Bruce VK2ZAD but text modified by Rod VK2DOT.
The following concoction is recommended for users of this document to brew up, this brew will enable your de-
soldering to become easier.
Rosin and Methylated Spirits are purchased from your local hardware store.
To brew up this "Bugs Juice":
•
Crush lumps of rosin and place in a jar or a small tin can with an air tight lid.
•
Cover the rosin in the jar or can with methylated spirits.
•
Apply the air tight lid and allow to dissolve.
•
If the final solution is too thick, then thin with more methylated spirits.
•
If the final solution is too thin, then thicken by adding more rosin.
•
Apply to the surface to be de-soldered with a small brush, old toothbrush or icy pole stick. We have
found that a wooden tooth pick has been the most successful method of applying the Bugs Juice to the
pin requiring de-soldering.
