Am I Seeing (Smelling?) My Gold Burned?

Posted on Sunday, 22nd November 2009 by Auw Jimmy

When I arrived back home at night and cleaned up my equipment, I noticed that my solder tip has “golden” color appearance. Well, I have been on this solder-toy-world for over 15 years, but never saw my solder tip showed this kind of color.

I think this is caused by the usage of Mundorf M-Solder Supreme Silver/Gold. Check here for another entry of my blog for the short review of this solder.
