If you are restricting yourself to changing paste, dot size and process
parameters then you should be thinking in terms of speed of wetting. This
will be effected by profile, paste type and atmosphere.
Adjustments should be to slow the rate of wetting down whilst still achieving
the total activity needed for joint formation. So go for air and a higher
solids type no clean. Adjusting your profile accordingly. [Some manufacturers
- vertantly or inadvertantly - have "slow pastes" but generally if they do
they will tend to be the higher solid ones]
