hi,

this reminds me of old saw which goes something like:

if you put a teaspoon of dreck in a barrel of fine wine, you'll end up with a barrel of dreck.  on the other hand if you put a teaspoon of fine wine in a barrel of dreck, you won't end up with a barrel of fine wine.

You'll just ruin a lot of nice new paste. It's like having hot water, and
cold water that used to be hot - mix the two and you get warm water. The
cold one is hotter than it was (rejuvinated a bit, if you like, but not
completely) while the hot water is much cooler (rapidly aged).

Hello,

    I work for a small PCB Manufacturing plant in Michigan. I am somewhat
new to the buisness, and my co-workers have been giving me info about
solder
paste,  but there seems to be some questions about solder paste use
We use Kester R562 solder paste. One of the things they are telling me is
 mixing new solder paste with old solder paste will rejuvinate the old
paste.
 Is this true, or will it just ruin the new paste.
