Hi guys,
I am very new to soldering. I bought a prototype board trying to solder some very basic components into it. I found that the melted tin kept "sticking" to my solder gun instead of the board itself. I have watched several youtube video on how to solder. I followed what they did, but the tin will just "stick" to the gun all the time. What am I doing wrong here?
Second problem is that, I couldn't rub off the remaining tin on the gun. I saw people took them off by just gently touching a soaked sponge.
I tried reading some soldering guide but still couldn't pull it off. My solder just doesn't meet the "standard". The tin I applied is "floating" and not sitting on the board.
I hope someone experienced can give me some guide.
